Greetings again,

To expand al little...  

James's biography clearly states he had read and reread 
Upanishad and Buddhist texts, texts that belonged to his 
father.  This would have been around 1870.  

Here's a list of some of the books:

    Modern Buddhist -
    Religion des Buddha (Vol.1) - Koeppen
    Le Buddhisme - Taine
    Weltauffas der Buddhisten - Bastian
    Brahma Somej: Four Lectures - Sen 

    (William James: In the Maelstrom of American Modernism 
        by Robert D. Richardson)

James's ideas of pure experience weren't pulled out of the sky.
