Yes, but not necessarily "regardless of what they have read."

Claerly I am not asking what the term means according to "source"
Theosophy (where does that begin!). It may well be that someone has
a view which, so far as they are aware, may be the same as HPB-style
"source" Theosophy, but I would still like to hear that peron's'
interpretation *in their own words.*
We might be surprised to discover that different people interpret the
same source material in different ways .....
Sincerely,
Alan
