Moksopaya [sanskrit]

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 5.44.9

ययौ मासाष्टकं तस्य मग्नस्य सरसोऽम्भसि ।
मांसपङ्कजशङ्कोत्कभृङ्गभग्नमुखच्छवेः ॥ ९ ॥

yayau māsāṣṭakaṃ tasya magnasya saraso'mbhasi |
