Moksopaya [sanskrit]

192,019 words | ISBN-10: 8120831470 | ISBN-13: 9788120831476

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 5.1.15

महता तेन शब्देन तिरोधानं मुनेर्गिरः ।
ययुर्जलदनादेन कोकिलध्वनयो यथा ॥ १५ ॥

mahatā tena śabdena tirodhānaṃ munergiraḥ |
yayurjaladanādena kokiladhvanayo yathā || 15 ||
