The Authentic Name

Unicode restoration and ASCII comparison

Original Script

भैषज्यगुरु

The name in its original Buddhist form. Bhaiṣajyaguru (भैषज्यगुरु) is attested in the source tradition — “Medicine master”. Its emphatic consonants and palatal/retroflex sibilants carry the full phonetic and orthographic weight of the source tradition.

ASCII Constraint

bhaisajyaguru

Reduced to plain bhaisajyaguru, the name loses everything that made it specific: emphatic consonants and palatal/retroflex sibilants. What remains is an ASCII string that machines can parse but that no longer speaks with its original voice.

Unicode Restoration

Bhaiṣajyaguru

The Unicode restoration recovers what ASCII flattened. Bhaiṣajyaguru restores emphatic consonants and palatal/retroflex sibilants, returning the name to its original written dignity. The domain encodes to Punycode, but the browser displays the truth.
