What reading level is An Interpretation of India's Religious History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Under God it was this deep conviction of the human soul which led the Hindu to be dissatisfied with the law of Karma, which, if unmodified, would have made endless re-births and end- less existence the necessary unavoidable fate of every one. So the doctrine of Release from the working of Karma through knowl- edge and thereby through absorption into the only Reality, led the Hindu to accept, and to find satisfaction in the doctrine of absorption, because it seemed better than the Karmic doctrin...e of endless re-births and re- deaths.
For the same reason some men now com- mit suicide, blindly assuming that escape SOME FUNDAMENTALS OF HINDUISM 13 1 from what appears unbearable evil and hoped-for cessation of existence are better than the painful experiences of their present lives. In doctrine, as in life, suicide is con- fession. The fact that the Hindu thinker preferred eternal suicide to the eternal work- ing of the Karmic system is proof positive that that doctrine did not satisfy his heart nor his intellect.
