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.

kiṃ cānyat | atha nāsti sa svabhāvaḥ kiṃ nu pratiṣidhyate tvayānena | vacanena rte vacanāt pratiṣedhaḥ sidhyate hy asataḥ ||12|| 
偈言若法無自體 言語何所遮
若無法得遮 無語亦成遮 
| ji ltar raṅ bźin de med na || khyod kyi tshig des ci źig dgag |
| med pa yin na tshig med par || ’gog par rab tu grub pa yin | 
If that intrinsic nature does not exist, what, then, do you negate by this statement? The negation of a non-existent is established without words. 
atha nāsty eva sa svabhāvo ’nena vacanena niḥsvabhāvāḥ sarvabhāvā iti kiṃ bhavatā pratiṣidhyate |  asato hi vacanād vinā siddhaḥ pratiṣedhaḥ, tadyathāgneḥ śaityasya, apām auṣṇyasya | 
此偈明何義 若法無體語亦無體 云何遮言 一切諸法皆無自體  若如是遮 不說言語亦得成遮 若如是者火冷水堅如是等過

If that intrinsic nature does not really exist, what do you negate by this statement: ‘All things are devoid of an intrinsic nature’?  The negation of a non-existent, e.g., that of the coolness of fire or of the heat of water is established without words. Furthermore:
