Thus, an another experiment was designed to evaluate the ESP prediction on the subjects of non-meditator group. A multigroup, multi-level pre- and postdesign was adopted. After a brief introduction about the purpose of the study and properties of consciousness, a sample of voluntarily interested 30 graduate and post-graduate students of Social Work and Jain studies of Jain Vishva Bharati Institute (Deemed University), Ladnun, Rajasthan, India, were selected as subjects having an age group of 18-25 in academic year 1997-98. They were divided in two groups i.e. experimental (16 subjects) and control (14). Each subject was tested for to five runs individually (using a separate ESP pack for each run) at pre, post-I and post-II experimental stages. Both the experimental and control groups were asked to detect the ESP symbol of each card individually at the preexperimental stage without applying the properties of consciousness.
Subsequently, while the control group was not provided any training for application of properties of consciousness and were simply asked to detect the ESP symbols, the experimental group was given a training after pre-experimental stage testing (as per procedure described carlier in stage 2). Training was imparted for 8 days before the first testing (Post I) and again for 6 days before the second testing (Post II). The result of the scoring of each subject was communicated to him only after the last testing.
RESULTS
Results of experiment A are not presented here as these were rejected after evaluation as discussed in the methods. The results of the remaining are presented here experiment-wise.

In experiment B of the scores of ESP test (m=8.21) were increased significantly (p<.001) after intervention as compared to baseline (m=4.63) of the monk meditator. (See Table 1.1 and Fig. 1.)
