What reading level is An Interpretation of Indias Religious History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
About two hundred years later, in the four- teenth century, there lived another reformer 82 INDIA'S RELIGIOUS HISTORY named Ramananda who carried throughout a large part of India this doctrine of salva- tion through loving devotion to a personal God. He is considered the fifth great Vaishnava leader in succession to Ramanuja. Besides preaching the doctrine and power of bhakti, Ramananda went beyond previous leaders in making this faith familiar with the masses, and he chose his twelve disciples..., not from priests or nobles, but from the common people and even from the despised classes. One of these disciples was a leather- worker, another a barber, and the most dis- tinguished was the son of a v/eaver. In India Ramananda was a contemporary of Wycklif^e in Britain. Both the British Chris- tian reformer and the Indian Hindu reformer sought to purify religion by making it a personal experience dependent on right re- lation to God, and not on a hierarchy. Why should not the one, as well as the other re- former, be gratefully counted as taught and strengthened by God?
