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.
 
If you cannot find the letters on your key-board, you may click on the link "Diacritica" to access it for your search.

[7] Thereupon, seeing that great wonder and the excellence of the nobility of his figure, the wife of the caravan leader, Divākara, became greatly astonished, as did the retinue.  The caravan leader, Divākara, was at the gate-chamber outside the house.  He was informed saying: "Congratulations, O caravan leader, a son is born to you".  Thrilled, pleased and elated at heart, he entered the house and saw the boy who was exceedingly handsome, charming, pleasant and endowed with all the major and minor limbs;  possessed of an excellence of complexion, the colour of purified gold, he captivated the eyes and mind of all people.  His body was covered with golden-yellow garments. The fragrance of sandal issued from his body and that of the blue lotus from his mouth.  There had fallen a shower of garments and of Karnikāra flowers.  Those garments were golden hued. Having seen these and become full of exceeding joy and gladness, he uttered a joyous utterance:  "Ah! profit have I easily obtained. Ah! fulfilled is the wish of me to whom is born a son such as this, distinguished by reason of his merit".  Thrilled, pleased and delighted at heart, he gave those garments to ascetics, brahmins, the wretched, beggars, friends, relations and kinsmen.
