Moksopaya [sanskrit]

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 6.24.1

चिरातीतसर्गवर्णनं नाम सर्गः ।
चतुर्विंशः सर्गः ।
वसिष्ठः ।
अथासौ वायसश्रेष्ठो जिज्ञासार्थमिदं मया ।
भूयः पृष्टो महाबाहो कल्पवृक्षलताग्रखे ॥ १ ॥

cirātītasargavarṇanaṃ nāma sargaḥ |
caturviṃśaḥ sargaḥ |
vasiṣṭhaḥ |
athāsau vāyasaśreṣṭho jijñāsārthamidaṃ mayā |
bhūyaḥ pṛṣṭo mahābāho kalpavṛkṣalatāgrakhe || 1 ||
