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 3.54.37

धारणा यस्य नाभ्यासं प्राप्ता नैव स मुक्तिभाक् ।
मूर्खः स्वमृतिकालेऽसौ दुःखमेत्यवशाशयः ॥ ३७ ॥

dhāraṇā yasya nābhyāsaṃ prāptā naiva sa muktibhāk |
mūrkhaḥ svamṛtikāle'sau duḥkhametyavaśāśayaḥ || 37 ||
