What reading level is Parsi Janina And Sikh Or Some Minor Religious Sects in India the Maitland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

By the combination of these atoms are pro- duced the four elements, and human bodies, as well as the phenomena of the world of sense, and the heavenly worlds. The Jaina are as extravagant with regard to time as with regard to space. They consider that human bodies and human lives increase during the Utsarpini, and diminish during the Ava- sarpini — periods of incredible length. The doctrine of bondage of souls, as held by the Jaina, is practi- cally identical with the views held by Indian think...ers generally. But they stand alone in maintaining that souls are to be found ' in apparently lifeless masses, in stone, in clods of earth, in drops of water, in fire, and in wind. ' Right conduct divides itself into two branches, according as it is incumbent upon the Jaina monk or layman. The Jaina monk, as we have seen above, on entering the order takes five vows ; not only is he to abstain from these sins himself in thought, word, and deed, but he is not to cause others to be guilty of them.
