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 4.41.2

तिर्यञ्चः पशवो मूढा येन तुष्यन्त्यसाधवः ।
भोगादिना कथं तेन रतिमायान्ति साधवः ॥ २ ॥

tiryañcaḥ paśavo mūḍhā yena tuṣyantyasādhavaḥ |
bhogādinā kathaṃ tena ratimāyānti sādhavaḥ || 2 ||
