hi JSmusiqalthinka
One does not have to be a Buddhist to follow the core teachings of the Buddha.
The core teachings of the Buddha are
virtues
&
skilful means
to be practised which lead to freedom from suffering.
These virtues & skilful means such as non-harming, good-will, gratitude, wise reflection, non-attachment, mindful breathing, etc, are not related to the thought or identity "Buddhist".
To covert is not related to practice & finding freedom.
May all beings be happy
Avoiding harm
Cultivating goodness,
Purifying the mind
These three are the teaching of all Awakened Ones (Buddhas)
