AB  - The treatment of bacterial infections and the rising challenges of antibiotics resistance are global concerns and the primary topics in basic science and clinical microbiology. In the present study, the effectiveness of treatment of selected populations of bacteria using an immaterial and non-energetic method called Fara-darmani Consciousness Field treatment is investigated. Population growth was assessed by turbidimetry, colony counting and tetrazolium chloride reduction assays in non-treated control and Fara-darmani-treated groups. Our results suggest effectiveness of the Fara-darmani Consciousness Field on reducing various types of bacterial strain growth rates (up to 46%). In addition, along with a decrease in bacterial population, evidence of increased survival can be seen in the larger healthy population (up to about 60%). Thus, in this study, we confirm the effects of the Consciousness Field on bacterial population survival. This study also warrants additional research.Competing Interest StatementThe authors have declared no competing interest.
