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 1.15.22

चेतः पतति कार्येषु विहगश्चामिषेष्विव ।
क्षणेन विरतिं याति बालः क्रीडनकादिव ॥ २२ ॥

cetaḥ patati kāryeṣu vihagaścāmiṣeṣviva |
kṣaṇena viratiṃ yāti bālaḥ krīḍanakādiva || 22 ||
