Abstract
The purpose of the study is to find whether there is any effect of meditation on vital capacity or not. To fulfil the specific purpose, the study was conducted on 200 male students of G.B. Pant College, Budaun which are randomly selected as subjects. The subjects were randomly divided in two groups named Treatment group (N=100) and Control group (N=100) respectively. Subjects under treatment group were introduced with the practice of meditation and the control groups were not given any kind of training. Pre and Post data of both groups were recorded after eight weeks of treatment to find the result. The collected data were analyzed by using t-test to find out any differences. The result showed significant improvement in the data of vital capacity of subjects under treatment group. Thus we can say that meditation can be used by athletes for improving performance.
