The "Wakoklon Heelel Thilel Salai Amailon Pukok Puya" (Old Manipuri: ꯋꯥꯀꯣꯛꯂꯣꯟ ꯍꯤꯂꯦꯜ ꯊꯤꯂꯦꯜ ꯁꯥꯂꯥꯢ ꯑꯃꯥꯢꯂꯣꯟ ꯄꯨꯀꯣꯛ ꯄꯨꯌꯥ; Meitei: ꯋꯥꯀꯣꯛꯂꯣꯟ ꯍꯤꯂꯦꯜ ꯊꯤꯂꯦꯜ ꯁꯂꯥꯏ ꯑꯃꯥꯏꯂꯣꯟ ꯄꯨꯀꯣꯛ ꯄꯨꯌꯥ), shortly known as the "Wakoklon" (Old Manipuri: ꯋꯥꯀꯣꯛꯂꯣꯟ; Meitei: ꯋꯥꯀꯣꯛꯂꯣꯟ), is one of the oldest scriptures (puyas) in Sanamahism, the Meitei religion of Ancient Manipur. It is confirmed that it was written in 1398 BC (3400 years ago).[1]

The text is considered by the people and the Government of Manipur as the source of the Kanglei Eeyek (Meitei script).[2] The Wakoklon recommends only 18 letters to be used in the Meetei writing system.[3] One of the most important lines written in the text is "Konsen Tuleisengpa Sana Ee Mahi".[4] The text also mentions about the ancestral rituals to please the deities.[5]
