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.

以意淨故得佛國淨 我世尊本為菩薩時意豈不淨 而是佛國不淨若此 
若菩薩心淨則佛土淨者 我世尊本為菩薩時意豈不淨 而是佛土不淨若此 
若諸菩薩心嚴淨故佛土嚴淨 而我世尊行菩薩時 心不嚴淨故 是佛土雜穢若此

If the mind of a Bodhisattva must be ppure in order for his Buddhakṣetra to be purified, then, when the Blessed Lord Śakyamuni exercised the practices as a Bodhisattva, his mind must have been impure, since today his Buddhakṣetra appears to be so impure.

The Blessed One, knowing the Venherable Śāriputra’s thought in his mind, said to him:  What do you think of this, Śāriputra? Is it beacuse the sun and the moon are impure that those who are born blind cannot see them? 
āha no hīdam bhagavan jātyandhāparādha eṣa na sūryacandramasoḥ |

Śāriputra replied: Not so, Blessed One; it is the fault of those born blind, is is not the fault of the sun and the moon.

佛言 此舍利弗咎 在眾人無有智慧 不見如來佛國嚴淨 非如來咎 此舍利弗 我佛國淨汝又未見 
舍利弗 眾生罪故不見如來佛土嚴淨 非如來咎 舍利弗 我此土淨而汝不見 
佛言 如是眾生罪故不見世尊佛土嚴淨 非如來咎 舍利子 我土嚴淨而汝不見

The Buddha continued: Similarly Śāriputra, if beings cannot see the virtues of the Buddhakṣetra of the Tathāgata, the fault is in their ignorance; the fault is not the Tathāgata’s. Śāriputra, my Buddhakṣetra is pure, but you cannot yourself see it.
