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 6.30.72

पिशाचो हि मनोनामा शून्ये देहगृहे स्थितः ।
भाययत्येष दुष्टात्मा मैनमुत्तम संस्पृश ॥ ७२ ॥

piśāco hi manonāmā śūnye dehagṛhe sthitaḥ |
bhāyayatyeṣa duṣṭātmā mainamuttama saṃspṛśa || 72 ||
