Conclusion and Discussion
In this preliminary study, which is the first efforts of the authors, effect of factors (properties of consciousness) as seen in the results of ESP tests, is significantly clear irrespective of whether it was applied on a monk or a householder or a group of 30 young students. This is noteworthy as the first two categories had some understanding or faith in properties of consciousness, the last category i.e. of the students had no knowledge of these concepts before they were subjected to these tests.
