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 5.48.13

एवम्प्रायाः स्मरन् गाधिः प्राक्तनीश्श्वपचक्रियाः ।
विस्मयोत्कम्पितशिरा धातुश्चेष्टाः परामृशन् ॥ १३ ॥

evamprāyāḥ smaran gādhiḥ prāktanīśśvapacakriyāḥ |
vismayotkampitaśirā dhātuśceṣṭāḥ parāmṛśan || 13 ||
