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 3.122.10

घटे कपालतां याते घटाकाशो न नश्यति ।
यथा तथा शरीरेऽस्मिन्नष्टे त्वं न विनश्यसि ॥ १० ॥

ghaṭe kapālatāṃ yāte ghaṭākāśo na naśyati |
yathā tathā śarīre'sminnaṣṭe tvaṃ na vinaśyasi || 10 ||
