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 6.99.1

शिखिध्वजावबोधनं नाम सर्गः ।
एकोनशततमः सर्गः ।
शिखिध्वजः ।
आब्रह्मस्तम्बपर्यन्तं यद्ययं भासते भ्रमः ।
अर्थक्रियासमर्थश्च तत्स्थितं दुःखकारणम् ॥ १ ॥

śikhidhvajāvabodhanaṃ nāma sargaḥ |
ekonaśatatamaḥ sargaḥ |
śikhidhvajaḥ |
ābrahmastambaparyantaṃ yadyayaṃ bhāsate bhramaḥ |
arthakriyāsamarthaśca tatsthitaṃ duḥkhakāraṇam || 1 ||
