I think you're patting yourself on the back too quickly. HPB is a nut job wacko who mixed the Greek Hermes, Egyptian Thoth, and Buddha, to redefine the English word "truth."
"“ ‘Truth alone’, says Pimander, ‘is eternal and immutable; truth is the first of blessings; but truth is not and cannot be on earth; it is possible that God gifts a few men together with the faculty of comprehending divine things [and] with that of rightly understanding truth; but nothing is true on earth, for everything has matter on it, clothed with a corporeal form subject to change, to alteration, to corruption, and to new combinations. (…) Truth, then, is that only which is immaterial and not enclosed within a corporeal envelope, that which is colorless and formless, exempt from change and alteration; that which is ETERNAL’.”
As you can see, for her "truth" is the transcendent human that only finds "truth" when bound with "God" or "Brahma" or whatever religious figure you relate. She thought of what eventually happens is you realize you're already part of "God" and through Maya (Illusion) think of yourself as separate from God (dualistic) when in fact reality is you're not separate (non-dualistic).
So by quoting her, you're agreeing with those you argue against. It should actually read, "There is no religion higher than the realization you yourself are God."
Take care,
Namo Amituofo!
