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.

Then the Venerable Ānanda addressed himself to the Lord: Lord, what is the name of this expostion of religion? How should it be adopted? The Lord said: Ānanda, this is why you should adopt this exposition of religion as “The chapter on the gate into the great display” (mahāvyūhamukhaparivarta), you should adopt it as “The miraculous play of Mañjuśrī” (mañjuśrīvikrīḍita), you should adopt it as “The education of the daugther of a courtesan Suvarṇottamaprabhāśrī” (suvarṇottamaprabhāśrīgaṇikāduhitāvinaya). As the Lord had uttered these words, the venerable Ānanda, the courtesan Suvarṇottamaprabhāśrī, the son of a banker Bhayadatta, the princely Mañjuśrī, those great beings the bodhisatvas and all their retinue, and the world with gods, men giants celestial musicians were overjoyed and they praised what the Lord had spoken.
