high-definition creative commons posters depicting The Miraculous Bowl from The Epic of Maṇimēkhalai together with further information.
Maṇimēkhalai receives the magic begging-bowl, which provides an endless supply of food. She returns to Puhār with her mother and friend, and together they visit the monk Aṟavaṇa Aḍigaḷ, who explains the nature of the bowl and tells her the story of Āputra. This story highlights the core Buddhist virtues of compassion and mercy, inspiring Maṇimēkhalai to use the bowl to alleviate the suffering of the poor.
