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 6.252.26

संसारवासनाभावरूपसत्या तु यस्य धीः ।
मन्दा मोक्षे निराकाङ्क्षा स श्वा कीटोऽथ वानरः ॥ २६ ॥

saṃsāravāsanābhāvarūpasatyā tu yasya dhīḥ |
mandā mokṣe nirākāṅkṣā sa śvā kīṭo'tha vānaraḥ || 26 ||
