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 5.92.16

यदा न स्पन्दते प्राणः सिरासरणिकोटरे ।
असंवित्तिवशात्तेन चित्तमन्तर्न जायते ॥ १६ ॥

yadā na spandate prāṇaḥ sirāsaraṇikoṭare |
asaṃvittivaśāttena cittamantarna jāyate || 16 ||
