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 1.16.47

अहो बत महच्चित्रं तृष्णामपि महाधियः ।
दुश्छेद्यामपि कृन्तन्ति विवेकेनामलासिना ॥ ४७ ॥

aho bata mahaccitraṃ tṛṣṇāmapi mahādhiyaḥ |
duśchedyāmapi kṛntanti vivekenāmalāsinā || 47 ||
