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.

[125] Thereupon, the caravan leader, Divākara, arose from his seat and put the upper robe over one shoulder, placed his right knee upon the ground, and bowing with clasped hands in the direction of the Elder Ānanda, thrice uttered a joyous utterance:  "This, venerable Sir, was done for me not by mother, not by father, not by king, not by deities, not by the beloved of my own folk and kinsmen, not by the departed ones nor by ascetics and brahmins; but only by the Noble Ānanda.  The oceans of blood and tears have dried up."

"Worshipped in the world by the Daityas, men and gods; free from the inflictions of birth, decay and death, O sage, whose sight is difficult to obtain even in thousands of existences, today, the sight of you has been fruitful." (1)
