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 6.98.12

शिखिध्वजः ।
चित्तत्यागादहं मन्ये चित्तनाशः स्वसिद्धये ।
अभावश्चेतसो व्याधेः कथमस्यानुभूयते ॥ १२ ॥

śikhidhvajaḥ |
cittatyāgādahaṃ manye cittanāśaḥ svasiddhaye |
abhāvaścetaso vyādheḥ kathamasyānubhūyate || 12 ||
