[Bridgester]

The active parts of my practice are following the Noble Eightfold Path, adhering to the Five Precepts, and some (Samatha-Vipassana) Meditation either sitting or during daily activities.

The Four Noble Truths and Three Marks of Existence (Impermanence, Dukkha, Not-Self) are for contemplation & insight.

As far as my practice, the Buddha's teachings are meant for the alleviation of suffering, the destroying of all ignorance in our view of reality, leading to stillness and imperturbability of mind. I don't worry about what I can't know, instead staying detached from either belief or disbelief (such as literal rebirth, devas and other realms). I understand karma as "choice", as in choices of thought, speech and action that either lead the mind toward or away from a state of awakening/liberation.

I don't call myself a Buddhist or a non-Buddhist. To me it's about figuring out who/what you are already, not trying to define yourself or make yourself into something. To each his/her own. =)
