To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Aryans brought these monotheistic Vedas with them when they migrated into North India. But there soon arose another series of religious books, the Upanishads, commentaries on the 100 J Hinduism as It Is Vedas, rituals, all those books known to the Hindus as ''The Shastras." These are theoretic- ally held to be of only secondary authority to the Vedas; but, in reality, it is they, with the still later books, "The Puranas," that teach the reli- gion, and control the lives of the Hindus of the... present age. With them first came in the idea of the Hindu Triad, and the host of minor gods; of Nirvana, or final absorption; of caste distinctions and caste observance. Modern polytheism and idol- atry; pilgrimages to holy places; desert wander- ings and asceticism; physical tortures; infant marriages; virgin widowhood; suttee, or the burning of a widow on the funeral pyre of her departed lord, all crept in under the shadow of these Shastras and Puranas. Hinduism, since before the time of Christ, holds to The Trimurti, that is, the Hindu Triad, Brahma, Vishnu, and Siva.
