Manasagocara (मनसगोचर) refers to “everything belonging to the mind”, according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Janaka says to Aṣṭavakra]: “[...] So now abandoning the body and everything else, by some good fortune or other my true self becomes apparent. [...] How wonderful I am! Glory be to me! There is no one so clever as me! I who have borne all that is forever, without even touching it with my body! How wonderful I am! Glory be to me! I who possess nothing at all, or alternatively possess everything that speech and mind (manasagocara) can refer to [athavā yasya me sarvaṃ yadvāṅmanasagocaram]. [...]”
