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 4.24.7

स्वशिखास्पन्दशक्त्यैव दीपः सोम्यो यथोच्चताम् ।
एति तद्वदसावात्मा तत्स्वे वपुषि वल्गति ॥ ७ ॥

svaśikhāspandaśaktyaiva dīpaḥ somyo yathoccatām |
eti tadvadasāvātmā tatsve vapuṣi valgati || 7 ||
