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 2.5.1

पौरुषोपक्रमणं नाम सर्गः ।
पञ्चमः सर्गः ।
वसिष्ठः ।
प्रवृत्तिरेवं प्रथमं यथाशास्त्रं विहारिणाम् ।
प्रभेव वर्णभेदानां साधनी सर्वकर्मणाम् ॥ १ ॥
