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 5.18.8

पृष्टः सन्प्रकृतं वक्ता न पृष्टः स्थाणुवत्स्थितः ।
ईहितानीहितैर्मुक्तः संसारे नावसीदति ॥ ८ ॥

pṛṣṭaḥ sanprakṛtaṃ vaktā na pṛṣṭaḥ sthāṇuvatsthitaḥ |
īhitānīhitairmuktaḥ saṃsāre nāvasīdati || 8 ||
