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 5.91.8

विद्यमानं मनो यावत्तावद्दुःखमनन्तकम् ।
मनस्यस्तङ्गते जन्तोः संसारोऽन्तमुपागतः ॥ ८ ॥

vidyamānaṃ mano yāvattāvadduḥkhamanantakam |
manasyastaṅgate jantoḥ saṃsāro'ntamupāgataḥ || 8 ||
