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 2.1.16

अज्ञासिषं पूर्वमेतदहमित्यथ तत्पितुः ।
स शुकश्शुद्धया बुद्ध्या न वाक्यं बह्वमन्यत ॥ १६ ॥

ajñāsiṣaṃ pūrvametadahamityatha tatpituḥ |
sa śukaśśuddhayā buddhyā na vākyaṃ bahvamanyata || 16 ||
