Could you live as a Jain in America today. Not as vowed religious, but as a householder or a single person? If yes, HOW...If no, WHY NOT. Could you practice Ahimsa, total non violence?
Yes.
One could live in America as a Jain since the country gives its people freedom to practice a religion of their choice. American Jainism began in the 20th century. Hence, a person as a householder or a single person can live in America.
Yes, Ahimsa was introduced to the world by Mahatma Gandhi and his followers in the struggle for India's freedom from Colonial British rule. Ahimsa is a peaceful protest, which does not use any forms of violence. Such protests are a very common practice of the American public today.
