4 for me. New York (Brooklyn) until I was 4, New Jersey (on the shore) until I was 24, Pennsylvania for two semesters at Lock Haven when I was 22, and Kentucky (Rockcastle County/Jackson County for 2 years, Lexington for the rest) since I was 25. No desire to leave here.

PA and MD. Took a job at an accounting firm in Baltimore with plans of making my way back to PA. Instead I met my future wife on the first day of work. I’ve been in MD for 13 years now.

Only one ….samadhi

I enjoy the highest state of mental concentration and spiritual enlightenment, a blissful state of consciousness in which one identifies with the Absolute.

2 states... PA (Born and raised in Doylestown), and FL
Why I took the job in Florida 10 years ago when I was offered. I always wanted to live in a different section of the country and see more things locals see not just on vacation. I wanted new experiences in a new section of the country. For me life is about living and experiences and I wanted to try something new. I love living in FL. Was a great choice and has given me close access to the Carolina's and AL, MS, LA as well.

I have lived in 5 states - OH, PA, DE, MI, and FL (not necessarily in that order). Lived in a couple of those states more than once. I did live in MD temporarily for two months back in the 80’s but I’m not counting that.
