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 5.42.8

अज्ञानमुच्यते पापं तद्विचारेण नश्यति ।
पापमूलच्छिदं तस्माद्विचारं न परित्यजेत् ॥ ८ ॥

ajñānamucyate pāpaṃ tadvicāreṇa naśyati |
pāpamūlacchidaṃ tasmādvicāraṃ na parityajet || 8 ||
