Rampa TouchStones 
"Stones are materials which can exert a very great influence upon us, upon our thoughts, upon our health"
~ ~ ~
Centuries and centuries ago, when the world was a much wiser place than it is now, before the age of aspirins and various tranquilising drugs, the priests and wise men had methods of calming a person who was nervous or irritable, or in some way "off colour". They made Tranquilizer Touch Stones. These very special stones were shaped in a particular manner so that, by gently rubbing them, one could obtain a pleasant tactile impression which soothed a troubled mind, prevented one from having ulcers, bad temper, or hysteria.
A Tranquilizer Touch Stone should be held in either the left or the right hand, it does not matter which. The part with my name should be against the palm, and the ideograph should be at the bottom, leaving the carefully dished portion facing upwards so that it comes under the ball of your thumb. Then your thumb should idly follow the contours in that dished portion. You will find that comfort, ease, and freedom from worry will steal upon you; you will find that your problems will dissolve away like morning mist before the rising sun. You will find that you have such peace of mind as you have not had before. Stones can help us quite as much as fruits and herbal remedies. It should be stated that only a suitably contoured Touch Stone should be used because the wrong sort can cause irritation instead of tranquillity. So you have been warned!
Perhaps I should explain here that Rampa TouchStones are not charms, they are not talismans. They are a special device which is used by the one owner only, and which quickly generate great force, and which help that one owner achieve calmness. They cannot be used by two or more people, and; as thousands of letters to Dr. Rampa have testified - when he was alive - they really do work. But remember that they are not talismans, they are not charms; they are something absolutely different and very real!

These are Dr. Ramp's own words on the subject - direct from his book: "I have no business enterprises of any kind whatsoever, and I am not connected with any firm at all, not connected directly nor indirectly. There are two people only who can in any way use my name; they are Mr. Sowter (Diseased) of A Touch Stone Ltd., 33 Ashby Road, Loughborough, Leicestershire, England, and Mr. Ed Orlowski of Covehead, York P.O., P.E.I., Canada. For these two people I have designed certain things and given them permission to manufacture AS BEING DESIGNED BY ME AND MADE BY THEM. Now, apart from those two people no one else at all has any right to claim that they are associated with me or are making items of my design. If they do claim that they have items of mine and they are not called Sowter or Orlowski, then you can be sure they are definite out and out frauds".
So why am I talking about an item that cannot now be obtained? Well, they may be available again, but I am not promising anything! If anyone still has an original Rampa Touchstone please email me.
I would like to thank the people who have got in touch, who still have their Touch Stones, sadly we now cannot get permission to make these as everyone related to the Rampa estate are now dead and the Touch Stone mould has been disposed of. I still have two venues which may prove fruitful; only time will tell.
