ferently in different places, e.g.
sometimes Ajatasatru and sometimes Ajatasattu, just as in a
book dealing with Greek and Latin mythology one might employ
both Herakles and Hercules. Also many Indian names such as
Ramayana, Krishna, nirvana have become Europeanized or at
least are familiar to all Europeans interested in Indian
literature. It seems pedantic to write them with their full
and accurate complement of accents and dots and my general
practice is to give such words in their accurate spelling
(Ramayana, etc.) when they are first mentioned and also in
the notes but usually to print them in their simpler and
unaccented forms. I fear however that my practice in this
matter is not entirely consistent since different parts of
the book were written at different times."
