What reading level is Buddha And Buddhism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

On the same page he thus describes the Indian " philosophers " : — " Of these there are two classes, some of them called SarmaneB and others Brahmins. And those of the Sarmanse who are called Hylobii neither inhabit cities nor have roofs over them, but are clothed in the bark of trees, feed on nuts, and drink water in their hands.
Like those called Encratites in the present day, they know not marriage nor begetting of children. Some, too, of the Indians obey the precepts of Buddha, whom, on acc
...ount of his extraordinary sanctity, they have raised to divine honours." The importance of this passage is this, that from Strabo we get the description given by Megasthenes of the Indian philosophers, and it is made certain that the earlier part of this passage is from the same source.
Strabo describes the Brahmins and the " Germanes," also called, he says, "Hylobii." He gives the same details as Clement of Alexandria about their feeding on wild fruits and wearing the bark of trees. He, too, draws a distinction between the Germanes and the Brahmins on the subject of continency, the Brahmins being polygamists.
