Belief System

<<<eternal universal truth. I don't see theosophy as a belief system at all, nor do I see others say that it is. >>>

Anyone who thinks that Theosophy is eternal universal truth first has to define Theosophy. We have, so far, not been able to do that, Dallas's quotes notwithstanding. 

Please let me be the first to say (actually I have already said it) that Theosophy is indeed a belief system. So is every religion and philosophy on this earth. All we can ever hope to know and validate by experience and observation is our own belief system. I am not really downgrading Theosophy here, but rather I am showing the vital importance of belief systems in how we experience and react to every day life.
