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 5.35.85

एतावन्तमहं कालं कोऽभूवं चित्तमीदृशम् ।
येनाहमेव मिथ्यैव दृढाहङ्कारतां गतः ॥ ८५ ॥

etāvantamahaṃ kālaṃ ko'bhūvaṃ cittamīdṛśam |
yenāhameva mithyaiva dṛḍhāhaṅkāratāṃ gataḥ || 85 ||
