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 5.58.2

उत्तरस्या दिशो मेदः कर्पूरपटलं भुवः ।
सम्भृतं हसनं शार्वं शुक्लो वा चान्द्र आतपः ॥ २ ॥

uttarasyā diśo medaḥ karpūrapaṭalaṃ bhuvaḥ |
sambhṛtaṃ hasanaṃ śārvaṃ śuklo vā cāndra ātapaḥ || 2 ||
