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 1.17.51

वायोर्दीपस्य मनसो गच्छतो ज्ञायते गतिः ।
आगच्छतश्च भगवन्न शरीरशरस्य नः ॥ ५१ ॥

vāyordīpasya manaso gacchato jñāyate gatiḥ |
āgacchataśca bhagavanna śarīraśarasya naḥ || 51 ||
