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 5.68.40

मुक्तालताया गङ्गाया मेरोरापादमस्तकम् ।
तरङ्गमुक्ता गण्यन्ते न देहाः सक्तचेतसः ॥ ४० ॥

muktālatāyā gaṅgāyā merorāpādamastakam |
taraṅgamuktā gaṇyante na dehāḥ saktacetasaḥ || 40 ||
