Moksopaya [sanskrit]

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 3.119.8

मृगतृष्णाम्भसि द्वीन्दावहन्तारुचकादिषु ।
एतावदेव रूपं यत्प्रेक्ष्यमाणं न लक्ष्यते ॥ ८ ॥

mṛgatṛṣṇāmbhasi dvīndāvahantārucakādiṣu |
etāvadeva rūpaṃ yatprekṣyamāṇaṃ na lakṣyate || 8 ||
