Note on the transliteration:
The transliteration system of the BP/TLB is based on the Unicode/UTF-8 system. However, there may be difficulties with some of the letters – particularly on PC/Windows-based systems, but not so much on the Mac. We have chosen the most accepted older and traditional systems of transliteration against, e.g, Wylie for Tibetan, since with Unicode it is possible, in Sanskrit and Tibetan, etc., to represent one sound with one letter in almost all the cases (excepting Sanskrit and Tibetan aspirated letters, and Tibetan tsa, tsha, dza). We thus do not use the Wylie system which widely employs two letters for one sound (ng, ny, sh, zh etc.).
 
Important:
We ask you in particular to note the use of the ’ apostrophe and not the ' representing the avagrāha in Sanskrit, and most important the ’a-chuṅ in Tibetan. On the Mac the ’ is Alt-M.

§18 prabhāketur bodhisatva āha:  añe catvāro dhātavo ’nya ākāśadhātur iti dvayam etat |  ākāśasvabhāvā eva catvāro dhātavaḥ |  pūrvāntata ākāśasvabhāvā aparāntata ākāśasvabhāvās tathā pratyutpannato ’py ākāśasvabhāvāḥ |  yac caivaṃ dhātupraveśajñānam ayam advayapraveśaḥ | 
光造菩薩曰  四種異空種異為二  空種自然四大亦爾  本空自然末空自然  知此種者是不二入 
明相菩薩曰  四種異空種異為二  四種性即是空種性  如前際後際空故中際亦空  若能如是知諸種性者 是為入不二法門 
復有菩薩名曰光幢 作如是言  四界與空分別為二  若諸菩薩了知四界即虛空性  前中後際四界與空 性皆無倒  悟入諸界 是為悟入不二法門

The bodhisattva Prabhāketu declared,  "To say that the four main elements are one thing and the etheric space-element another is dualistic.  The four main elements are themselves the nature of space.  The past itself is also the nature of space. The future itself is also the nature of space. Likewise, the present itself is also the nature of space.  The gnosis that penetrates the elements in such a way is the entrance into nonduality."
