It gives me great pleasure to inform you that the critical edition of the Mokṣopāya, including the Khilas (also known as Nānāpraśna), has recently been completed:
The present volume is the third volume of the Nirvāṇaprakaraṇa and contains 4,990 verses distributed across 122 sargas. These verses cover chapters VI.253–374 of the Mokṣopāya. Along with the additional 602 verses of the Khilas in 14 chapters, the volume contains a total of 5,592 verses newly edited from manuscripts. The complete Nirvāṇaprakaraṇa thus comprises more than half of the Mokṣopāya's total text (30,040 verses).Contrary to a still-prevailing misconception, the 10th-century Mokṣopāya from Kashmir has nothing at all to do with Śaṅkara's Advaitavedānta or anyone else's Vedānta, but instead advocates a unique, consciousness-only ontology (cid-advaita). It is written in a delightful alternation of philosophical Sanskrit and classical kāvya style. Not to mention the spirited stories employed by the anonymous author as dṛṣṭāntas to exemplify the intricacies of his philosophy.
Below is an overview of all the 13 volumes published so far (Sanskrit edition, partial German translation, Commentary and Concordance):
Kindly regarding,WS
