Moksopaya [sanskrit]

This Sanskrit edition of the Moksopaya. It is a large philosophical text dealing with “the science of liberation”. Similar to the Yoga-vasistha in content, the Mokshopaya-shastra was likely its predecessor, said to contain 30,000 shlokas (metrical verses). One of the core philosophies of the texts teaches the non-existence of cognitive objects; while holding such a view leads to an attitude of dispassion towards worldly matters.

Verse 1.9.45

निरस्तास्थो निराशोऽसौ निरीहोऽसौ निरास्पदः ।
मोहेन च विमुक्तोऽसौ तेन तप्यामहे वयम् ॥ ४५ ॥

nirastāstho nirāśo'sau nirīho'sau nirāspadaḥ |
mohena ca vimukto'sau tena tapyāmahe vayam || 45 ||
