Other Buddhists Here?
I'm not sure who your teacher is.. but the most important precept in all sects of Buddhism is meditation. That's like saying I'm a Christian but i don't believe in Christ. do you research religions before you choose them?

i really despise how people choose religions or philosophies without even doing any research about what they are about. for those of you interested in Buddhism, check out wikipedia theres tons of info. if you're stil interested PM me i'll send you a good list of books.
I myself don't really have a set belief, but i'm really into eastern philosophy like Buddhism and Taoism and lately have been getting really into Tibetan Buddhism (the tibetan book of the dead is nuttttsssssss, search it on google read it online)
