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 6.158.1
इच्छामाहात्म्यवर्णनं नाम सर्गः ।
अष्टपञ्चाशदुत्तरशततमः सर्गः ।

कथमेतदतो ब्रह्मन् सम्भवत्याशु जीवतः ॥ १ ॥
