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 2.14.1

शमनिरूपणं नाम सर्गः ।
चतुर्दशः सर्गः ।
वसिष्ठः ।
शास्त्रावबोधामलया धिया परमपूतया ।
कर्तव्यः कारणज्ञेन विचारो नियतात्मना ॥ १ ॥
