The prologue introduces the epic of Maṇimēkhalai, a dancer who renounces worldly life to become a Buddhist nun. It outlines the plot: her rejection of the Cōḻa prince, her journey to the island of Maṇipallavam, receiving a magic bowl, and performing acts of charity. She assumes different forms, leading to the prince’s death, converts the queen, and finally learns the Buddhist teachings on suffering and liberation.
