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 5.46.46

किं मे दुःखितजीवेन मरणं मे महोत्सवः ।
लोकनिन्द्यस्य दुर्जन्तोर्जीवितान्मरणं वरम् ॥ ४६ ॥

kiṃ me duḥkhitajīvena maraṇaṃ me mahotsavaḥ |
lokanindyasya durjantorjīvitānmaraṇaṃ varam || 46 ||
