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 1.6.15

न च तेन समासाद्य स्थातुं शक्ता निशाचराः ।
क्रुद्धं केसरिणं दृष्ट्वा रणे वन इवैणकाः ॥ १५ ॥

na ca tena samāsādya sthātuṃ śaktā niśācarāḥ |
kruddhaṃ kesariṇaṃ dṛṣṭvā raṇe vana ivaiṇakāḥ || 15 ||
