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 6.121.18

सुखदुःखादयश्चैते दृश्यन्ते यदि वा मुखे ।
दृश्यन्ते एव तत्साधो न तु लिम्पन्ति ते मनः ॥ १८ ॥

sukhaduḥkhādayaścaite dṛśyante yadi vā mukhe |
dṛśyante eva tatsādho na tu limpanti te manaḥ || 18 ||
