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 1.8.11

गुप्तं पुरुषसिंहेन ज्वलनेनामृतं यथा ।
कृतास्त्रमकृतास्त्रं वा नैनं द्रक्ष्यन्ति राक्षसाः ॥ ११ ॥

guptaṃ puruṣasiṃhena jvalanenāmṛtaṃ yathā |
kṛtāstramakṛtāstraṃ vā nainaṃ drakṣyanti rākṣasāḥ || 11 ||
