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 6.243.16

दूरतः प्रेक्ष्यते मांसदृशा यदि च सा शिला ।
दृश्यते तच्छिलैवैका न तु सर्गादि किञ्चन ॥ १६ ॥

dūrataḥ prekṣyate māṃsadṛśā yadi ca sā śilā |
dṛśyate tacchilaivaikā na tu sargādi kiñcana || 16 ||
