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 1.21.8

कर्तव्यं किं मया कष्टं परत्रेत्यतिदारुणम् ।
अप्रतीकारयोग्यं हि वर्धते वार्द्धके भयम् ॥ ८ ॥

kartavyaṃ kiṃ mayā kaṣṭaṃ paratretyatidāruṇam |
apratīkārayogyaṃ hi vardhate vārddhake bhayam || 8 ||
