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.

[75] Then, having seen that very wonderful greatness of the Elder Ānanda, that assembly became quite full of faith in the Elder Ānanda.  Then, seeing that assembly thus full of faith in their minds, the Elder Ānanda performed an exposition of the doctrine in such a way that having heard it, many hundreds of thousands of beings obtained great distinction.  Some obtained the fruit of "entry into the stream", and some realized Arhatship.  Some set their minds on the awakening of the disciples, etc.,  and [that whole assembly] was made inclined towards the Buddha, intent upon the doctrine and devoted to the community of monks.  The caravan leader Divākara, together with his wife, realized the truths, and so did many hundreds of thousands of deities.  Thereupon, those deities full of faith in their minds, let fall a rain of divine garments  and played divine instruments, and the entire great cemetery was bestrewn with a stream that was knee-deep with various divine flowers such as blue-lotuses, red-lotuses, white water-lilies, white lotuses and māndāraka.
