What reading level is The Creed of Buddha book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From first to last, this theory of things — a theory from which the Ideas of natural law and natural growth are conspicuously absent — Is wholly foreign to Buddha's scheme of life. Miraculous intervention, whatever form it may take, Is beyond the horizon of his thought. The sacrificial system, ceremonialism, sacerdotalism, legalism, — all these he entirely rejects. Correct outward action counts for nothing In his eyes. The Inward motive to and the Inward conse- quences of action are all that he... regards. Media- tors count for nothing. Redeemers count for nothing. Priests count for nothing. Casuists and such like spiritual directors count for noth- ing. The most that one man can do for other men Is to tell them of the Path of Life — the broad Path of self-development through self- surrender — and give them general directions for finding and following It. The true Saviour of men Is he who does this. But each man In turn must walk In the Path, by using his own sight, his own strength, his own judgment, his own will.
