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 6.131.78

मनसैव मनश्छिन्द्धि संसारभ्रमशान्तये ।
क्षालयन्ति मलेनैव मलं क्षालनकोविदाः ॥ ७८ ॥

manasaiva manaśchinddhi saṃsārabhramaśāntaye |
kṣālayanti malenaiva malaṃ kṣālanakovidāḥ || 78 ||
