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 5.53.55

सङ्कल्पेन मनः स्पृष्ट्वा शरीरं बालयक्षवत् ।
पात्रायेव धनान्यस्मै स्वदुःखानि प्रयच्छति ॥ ५५ ॥

saṅkalpena manaḥ spṛṣṭvā śarīraṃ bālayakṣavat |
pātrāyeva dhanānyasmai svaduḥkhāni prayacchati || 55 ||
