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.

[55] Now, in the meantime, the Elder Ānanda, the Magnanimous One, as he came, said from quite a distance, filling all the quarters with a penetrating voice, and consoling the lad, Suvarṇavarṇa:  "Do not fear, child, I bear this body which resembles a venomous snake only for the sake of people amenable to instruction, such as you.  So, child, do not fear.  I will deliver you today from this danger.  Today, I fulfill the wish of the Fortunate One, the Awakened One.  This very day, I will render fruitful that teaching which was entrusted to me by the Fortunate One, the Knowing One, the Perceptive One, the Tathāgata, the Worthy One, the Fully Awakened One, and by the Great Elder Kāśyapa.  Today, I will make manifest the magnanimity of the chief disciples of the Tathāgata.  Today, I fulfill your wish.  Today, I remove this fear of yours, of death and of transmigration.  Today, I pluck out the shaft of your doubt and uncertainty.  Today, I cleanse your eyes which are obstructed by the veil of heterodox doctrines with a dab of the ointment of knowledge.  Today, I destroy the fire of your anger.  Today, I clothe you with passionlessness.  Today, I cause your seeds of merit to sprout.  Today, I extricate you from the mire of transmigration.  Today, I ferry you across the ocean of suffering.  Today, I lead you towards the other side of the wilderness of transmigration.  Today, I cut asunder the bonds of your defilements.  Today, I break down the door-panels of your hindrances.  Today, I will act in such a way that you, by abandoning all major and minor defilements, will attain Arhatship which is difficult to attain in endless crores, millions, hundreds and thousands (of kalpas).

Today, you will consume the entire fuel of the defilements with the fire of knowledge. Today, you will become freed from sickness, cleared of the doubts in your mind. (1)  Today you, O child, will cut down altogether and at once the tree of (re)birth that has long endured and is difficult to be hewn, with the great thunderbolt of knowledge. (2)  Boarding the ship of vigour, you will today cross over the ocean of existence with its water of passion, whirlpools of pride and waves of conceit. (3)  With the great thunderbolt of wisdom, you will rend asunder the mountain of suffering with re-births for its mass, old age for its basis and abounding in crags of death. (4)  Today, dear child, you will obtain that state which being free from the influxes and very difficult to obtain, you did not obtain in thousands of crores of kalpas." (5)
