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 5.21.17

यस्य चित्ततरौ स्फारे तृष्णाचपलमर्कटी ।
न वल्गति महत्तस्य राजते हृद्वनान्तरम् ॥ १७ ॥

yasya cittatarau sphāre tṛṣṇācapalamarkaṭī |
na valgati mahattasya rājate hṛdvanāntaram || 17 ||
