How so? In my experience, I have met Kabbalists and Sufis that disagree with 
each other as well as with Theosophists on a number of interpretive levels. 
But, I never heard of any logical disagreement on "fundamental principles." 

So, in your view, which one or more of the three theosophical propositions 
might they disagree with? Do they disagree with the Absolute, ineffable, 
divine origin of all "life" in the Cosmos? Do they disagree with the 
fundamental laws of cycles and periodicity? Do they disagree with the 
experiential purpose and evolution of Man's spiritual soul through all the 
kingdoms of nature to eventually return to the universal Spirit or Godhead? 

And, if there is such a disagreement -- would you kindly explain what are the 
"fundamental principles" or "truths" that they base their teachings on?
