It may not be a surprise that in textbooks a couple of years from now, Deva Ramananda believes, there will be paragraphs like this: “For centuries, perpetual motion inventors have been so desperate to try to understand mystery of forces, how to harmoniously put their properties all together, to invent a machine that would move forever without expenditure of force, capable of doing all sorts of work. Eminent perpetual motion inventors like Edward Somerset, II marquis of Worcester and Councillor Orffyreus invented and demonstrated their gravity wheels to the best satisfaction of learned man who witnessed the demonstrations. What were scientists doing, then? They were doing nothing except rejecting possibility of a perpetual motion and looking for putative conservation of ‘calorie’, ‘vis inertiae’, ‘vis viva’ or ‘impetus’ and later, their followers were vying with each other over the priority of claims who first found these concepts that finally led to establishment of law of conservation of energy. Instead of investigating perpetual motion, they were more interested in impossibility of perpetual motion machine to see the names of their heroes in the list of founders of principles of conservation of energy. None of the scientist attended to the problem of perpetual motion seriously like Orffyreus. Scientists were so prejudiced or provincial that in spite of much evidence of perpetual motion in nature displayed by solar system or entire Universe as well as found in the history of attempts to construct perpetual motion machines, they refused to accept the truths and ridiculed efforts of perpetual motion inventor who were far ahead in conception of true laws of nature as compared to scientists.”
Couple of years from now, the next generation will ask of us some of above questions and many more. As they review our thoughts, actions, and our inactions they will- either ask: What were perpetual motionist thinking about nature of gravity, putative laws of science and theory that debunks perpetual motion? Or surely they will ask why physicists were deaf, dumb and- blind to the perpetual motion that what being constructed by talented and skilled man, why they were so insensitive to the truth of what was unfolding? I want them to look back at the struggles of perpetual motion before and after the law of conservation of energy was established. Perpetual motionist is not naïve; mistakes are common while creating a design of perpetual motion. Initially, they are not much painful when they happen. But...years later some mistakes that delay a right design may be painful, however, these mistakes and pain provide an “experience" which eventually leads us to success...! Next generation will ask a question that I prefer to ask and I truly believe they will ask. How did- perpetual motionists find the moral courage to rise and face the hoary headed problem so many physicists said- was impossible to solve that was a mystery? How did they find the ability to raise- their level of consciousness about the truth that was long long awaited by our world? How did they find the courage to act and construct a perpetual motion machine amidst adverse environment?
