Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
मोक्षदोषो महानेष प्राप्य सिद्धिं गतानृषीन् । यदि तत्रैव विज्ञाने वर्तन्ते यतयः परे ॥
English Scholarly Translation
Following the scriptures relating to Liberation, I find this great fault in the subject, If, having attained to that high state, the Yatis continue to live in consciousness, it would appear, O king, that the religion of work is superior. If, again, consciousness disappear from the liberated state and one who has become liberated only resembles a person sunk in dreamless slumber, then nothing can be more improper than to say that there is really no consciousness in Liberation.
