I follow buddhist philosophy but would I still be considered atheist/nonreligious?

zaaa zaaa

I liked what buddha taught and while i don't believe in the supernatural aspects of some parts of buddhist religion i like the more secular type of buddhism. i really liked that book "buddhism without beliefs" as it taught a lot about gautama, zen, meditation. meditation and yoga have proven health benefits.

Answer
Technically, yes...

Specifically:
Non-religious -- no...
Atheist -- yes.

Buddhism is an atheistic religion.

There is a difference between "supernatural aspects" and "a supreme entity."

BTW: The roots of yoga are in Hinduism, not Buddhism.
