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 4.13.44

परमार्थे जगदिति रूपं वेत्ति स्वयं स्वकम् ।
यथा तैमिरिकं चक्षुः केशोण्डुकमिवेक्षितम् ॥ ४४ ॥

paramārthe jagaditi rūpaṃ vetti svayaṃ svakam |
yathā taimirikaṃ cakṣuḥ keśoṇḍukamivekṣitam || 44 ||
