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.

[111 ] Moreover: No one but the Buddha has such an excellent body adorned with every excellence of perfect figure and charm. (1) There is no expounder equal to the Buddha; there is no wise man equal to the Buddha; there is no knower equal to the Buddha; there is no sage equal to the Buddha. (2) There is no worthy receptacle equal to the Buddha; there is no one possessed of happiness equal to the Buddha; there is no one that is subdued who is equal to the Buddha; there is no lord equal to the Buddha. (3) There is no teacher equal to the Buddha; there is no father equal to the Buddha; there is no kinsman equal to the Buddha; there is no friend equal to the Buddha. (4) He is free from selfishness, free from intoxication, free from fear, free from fatigue, and free from evil. He has crossed the wilderness of existence, has no rival, and is free from illness. (5) Charming, tranquil, pure, subdued, mindful, possessed of powers, self-controlled, and benefactor to all beings, there is no other equal to the Buddha. (6) In short, let it therefore be duly understood that in perfect and distinct virtues there is not the like of the Buddha, even in the three worlds." (7)
