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 3.54.52

पूर्वापरं न जानाति स्मृतिस्तानवमागता ।
यथा पाश्चात्यसन्ध्यान्ते नष्टा दृष्टिर्दिगष्टके ॥ ५२ ॥

pūrvāparaṃ na jānāti smṛtistānavamāgatā |
yathā pāścātyasandhyānte naṣṭā dṛṣṭirdigaṣṭake || 52 ||
