Moksopaya [sanskrit]

192,019 words | ISBN-10: 8120831470 | ISBN-13: 9788120831476

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 6.92.27

दुःखानि मौर्ख्यविभवेन भवन्ति यानि नैवापदा न च जरामरणेन तानि ।
सर्वापदां शिरसि तिष्ठति मौर्ख्यमेकं कृष्णं जनस्य वपुषामिव केशजालम् ॥ २७ ॥

duḥkhāni maurkhyavibhavena bhavanti yāni naivāpadā na ca jarāmaraṇena tāni |
sarvāpadāṃ śirasi tiṣṭhati maurkhyamekaṃ kṛṣṇaṃ janasya vapuṣāmiva keśajālam || 27 ||
