Very. I tried to read Guénon's 'Introduction to the Study of the Hindu 
Doctrines' and gave up. It doesn't help that Guénon was a few bricks shy 
of a load. After trickling through the weirdness of the day he finally hit 
on Islam.

Thoreau talks about 'The Laws of Manu'.  I never could find it but I 
assume he was using Jones' translation. I did find a more complete modern 
translation and it is dense. Jones also popularized the relationship of 
Sanskit to European languages and theorized an Aryan invasion of India. 
Schopenhauer also read Jones to get his ideas of what eastern philosophy 
was. 

I only recently heard the term 'Protestant Buddhism' but I think it apples 
to most of the eastern religions that have been westernized.
