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 4.33.2

तस्मिंल् लतादले स्थित्वा विलोक्य ककुभः क्षणम् ।
दृढं पद्मासनं बद्ध्वा दिग्भ्यः प्रत्याहृतात्मना ॥ २ ॥

tasmiṃl latādale sthitvā vilokya kakubhaḥ kṣaṇam |
dṛḍhaṃ padmāsanaṃ baddhvā digbhyaḥ pratyāhṛtātmanā || 2 ||
