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 2.17.8

स्वयं ज्ञाता श्रुता वापि भ्रान्तिशान्त्यैव सौख्यदा ।
आप्तोक्तिवर्णिता सद्यो यथामृततरङ्गिणी ॥ ८ ॥

svayaṃ jñātā śrutā vāpi bhrāntiśāntyaiva saukhyadā |
āptoktivarṇitā sadyo yathāmṛtataraṅgiṇī || 8 ||
