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.

Chi: 佛陀跋陀, T.666 460a10-13

金剛慧。彼菩薩處胎出生。乃至成佛無餘泥洹常放光明。般泥洹後舍利塔廟亦常放光。以是因縁諸天世人。號曰常放光明王。

Chi: 不空, T.667 465a28-b4

金剛慧是彼菩薩。亦初生已便成正覺。彼佛世尊既成佛已。而於身中常放光明。乃至般涅槃時常放光明。彼佛世尊般涅槃後。所有舍利置於塔中常放光明。金剛慧以是因縁。彼時人天號彼世尊。名爲常放光明如來。

[Why the bodhisattva is named ‘*Sadāpramuktaraśmi’]
“Vajramati, when that bodhisattva had been born, had set out for ascetic life (abhiniṣkramaṇa), and [finally] completely awakened to buddhahood (bodhim abhisaṃbuddhaḥ), light continued to be emitted in such a way from the body of that bodhisattva. Even after [his] complete awakening, light continued to be emitted from the body of that exalted one. Even when the exalted one entered into parinirvāṇa, that light [from] his body continued to be emitted in the same way. [And] even after that tathāgata had entered parinirvāṇa and [his body] remained [as] relics (dhātu) in a stūpa, the light [from his] body [still] continued to be emitted. For this reason, Vajramati, that exalted one is named the ‘Always Light-Emitting One’ (*Sadāpramukta-raśmi) by gods and men.”
