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 5.20.24

ममापि बह्व्यो बहुधा योनयो मोहमन्थराः ।
समतीताः स्मराम्यद्य ता ज्ञानोदितया दृशा ॥ २४ ॥

mamāpi bahvyo bahudhā yonayo mohamantharāḥ |
samatītāḥ smarāmyadya tā jñānoditayā dṛśā || 24 ||
