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.

[6] Knowing her to be pregnant he maintained her, unconstrained, in the upper terrace of the palace;  with remedies against the cold in the cold season and remedies against the heat in the hot season, and with foods prescribed by physicians, not too bitter, not too sour, not too salt, not too sweet, not too pungent and not too astringent, with foods free from bitterness, sourness, salt, sweetness, pungency and astringency. Her limbs decked with full garlands of pearls and necklaces of many strings, like an Apsaras strolling in the Nandana-grove, she passed from bed to bed and seat to seat without descending upon the ground below. Nor did she hear an unpleasant noise till the maturing of the embryo.  She gave birth after a lapse of eight or nine months.  A boy was born, 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 minds of all people. His body was covered with golden-yellow garments.  The fragrance of sandal issued from his entire body and that of the blue lotus from his mouth.  At the very moment of his birth there fell a shower of garments and of Karṇikāra flowers. Those garments were golden hued.
