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.

Vimalakīrti: It should be sought in the prime mental activity of all living beings.  Mañjuśrī, you ask me why I am without servants,  but all Māras and opponents are my servants.  Why?  The Māras advocate this life of birth and death  and the bodhisattva does not avoid life.  The heterodox opponents advocate convictions,  and the bodhisattva is not troubled by convictions.  Therefore, all Māras and opponents are my servants.
