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 6.169.27

स्पन्दात्मतायां शान्तायां यथा स्पन्दं जलद्रवः ।
न वेत्ति जगदाभासं चितः प्रसरणं तथा ॥ २७ ॥

spandātmatāyāṃ śāntāyāṃ yathā spandaṃ jaladravaḥ |
na vetti jagadābhāsaṃ citaḥ prasaraṇaṃ tathā || 27 ||
