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 3.23.8

अहं जगदिति भ्रान्तेर्दृश्यस्यादावनुद्भवः ।
यदा ताभ्यामवगतः स्वात्यन्ताभावनात्मकः ॥ ८ ॥

ahaṃ jagaditi bhrānterdṛśyasyādāvanudbhavaḥ |
yadā tābhyāmavagataḥ svātyantābhāvanātmakaḥ || 8 ||
