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 3.14.57

चित्स्पन्दरूपिणोरस्ति न भेदः कर्तृकर्मणोः ।
स्पन्दमात्रं भवेत्कर्म स एव पुरुषः स्मृतः ॥ ५७ ॥

citspandarūpiṇorasti na bhedaḥ kartṛkarmaṇoḥ |
spandamātraṃ bhavetkarma sa eva puruṣaḥ smṛtaḥ || 57 ||
