if a writer uses the term "Brahminism" & pretends the Vedic tradition's upholders were ancient India's equivalent of the medieval Church trying to micromanage dogma & praxis, you are dealing with a fantasist. for Vedic strangeness-sublimity in English, go to Roberto Calasso's KA
source texts on that subject eg Olivelle's translations of the Dharmashastras (there are several other than Manu). (that taught me ancient Brahmins did not live some enviable "cushy" lifestyle.) alas, political power struggles warp the writing about that subject

Buddha’s Dharmic wisdom serves as a plug-in to preexisting devotional cultic forms of worship, which is why the prior religious substrate always persists after his teachings’ arrival. This is a beautiful feature of Buddhism and stands in contrast to other proselytizing faiths.

Yes the same hyperproductivity and highly variable quality is the case for Shakespeare, Hugo, Dumas. Dickens too imo. Also Emily Dickinson’s output peaked during a few super prolific years
It may be that certain intensities require spontaneity & speed to access
one contrast with Tolstoy (George Steiner wrote a whole book contrasting the two great Russians) is that even though Tolstoy produced deluges of prose there is something that feels "finished" & measured about everything he does. but for all T's religiosity--no Grand Inquisitor

Though Dostoevsky is a great favorite of mine, it seems he wrote very fast, being always in need of money (and I presume that means, with little time for revision), and even his greatest admirers admit the novels are messy. I recall reading that Hemingway and some contemporaries (discovering him in the recent Garnett translations [still, for me, the only ones to read]), were very excited, but thought of him as very imperfect because of this.
Very interesting. So much one could say about all this. Dickens, indeed, is a great comparison (and, as you likely know, Dostoevsky loved Dickens), in that, as (famously, yet to me astonishingly) his novels were "serialised", he too was constrained to write, and fast, and yet it's all so beautiful. Dickinson's poems seem written under an extreme internal pressure: her extreme compression – seemingly locking down the phrases – so they won't expand. One wonders about the mental state of late Shakespeare: it just poured out of him.
Yes, very polished. And a whole different thing. What grabs me about D is the rawness, the living voice, the mysticism, say (not found in T). For readers having trouble with him (as, funnily enough I have been lately with The Possessed), I suggest starting with the short works (again, always in Garnett versions), especially “The Double”, a great favourite, where he seems to be channelling the wonderful Gogol.
