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 3.30.18

अन्तश्शून्याः स्थिताः केचित्सकल्पक्षयरात्रयः ।
तरङ्गा इव तोयाब्धौ प्रोह्यन्ते शून्यतार्णवे ॥ १८ ॥

antaśśūnyāḥ sthitāḥ kecitsakalpakṣayarātrayaḥ |
taraṅgā iva toyābdhau prohyante śūnyatārṇave || 18 ||
