Mokṣabhāj (मोक्षभाज्) refers to “having attained liberation”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Now, I will teach knowledge for the liberation of those people who have conquered their passion. [...] The element earth is first, water second, fire third, air fourth, ether fifth and mind is said to be the sixth. The seventh is the highest reality: he who knows it, is liberated (mokṣabhāj). [...]”.
