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 3.89.20

अपृच्छत्तौ ततो राजा खिन्नौ स्थः किं न दुर्मती ।
ताव् ऊचतुर्महीपालं जलाशयसमुद्धृतौ ॥ २० ॥

apṛcchattau tato rājā khinnau sthaḥ kiṃ na durmatī |
tāv ūcaturmahīpālaṃ jalāśayasamuddhṛtau || 20 ||
