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.

1. =31,1 
1 (35). IT is good to control the mind, which is difficult to hold, unstable, and which goes where it pleases: with a controlled mind one acquires happiness.

3. =31,3 
3. Like one deprived of the light of the sun, one’s mind wanders about; they who are truly wise hold it in, as one does an elephant with an iron hook.

4. I t is not "do that which .is of no profit to oneself, which is not worth a thought, which is of no import; but continually to control your mind" - that is what I say.

5. =31,5 
5 (326). Formerly this mind (of mine) ran about as it wanted, as suited its fancy; now it is orderly, and I hold it in as does the man with a hook’ a maddened elephant.

6. =31,6 
6 (153). Maker of the house, I have sought until now to find thee: going through the revolution of countless existences, and subject to the pain of ever-recurring birth.

8. =31,8 
8 (33). When one, having freed the mind of the sanskâra, would put an end to it (birth), the mind being uncertain, changeable, flighty, and hard to control, he must straighten it by application as the fletcher straightens (his arrows) with fire.

10. =31,9 
10 (42). He whose mind is evilly inclined will bring suffering on himself, as will not a hater by hatred, as will not an enemy to an enemy.
