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 4.3.19

एवं हि मनसः कर्म कर्मबीजं मनः स्मृतम् ।
अभिन्नैवैतयोः सत्ता यथा कुसुमगन्धयोः ॥ १९ ॥

evaṃ hi manasaḥ karma karmabījaṃ manaḥ smṛtam |
abhinnaivaitayoḥ sattā yathā kusumagandhayoḥ || 19 ||
