Wow, old Bhaskaracharya would solve the world's problems relating to energy generation very simply.
Mother Earth will provide all, with Her gravity.

Hand-waving rubbish, wiki is criminally wrong. The brief article is just a bunch of twisted opinions, to discredit the great Bhaskara by **misrepresentation** and thus maintain the fallacious western approaches.

shows the functioning wheel, perpetually moving. Not in the spokes - an introduced error in the wiki article - but along the rim is where the mercury/fluid needs to be placed, to provide the necessary torque.

Thus reducing to rubble the law of conservation of energy. Energy is continually created and lost in the infinite universe.

FAIL.

Wiki has failed, yes. Pathetic. It and the whole of Western physics has been failed by a kid with a bicycle wheel and some half-filled bottles, a pulley system, a motor. As shown in the link below.
That is, using Bhaskaracharya's perpetual motion machine. Which is most likely a scientific memory from the greatness of the dimly remembered ancient Indian civilisation.
Bhaskara used mercury instead of water, to generate more torque.

Had mercury been used above instead of water it could have driven a more powerful generator.

Mercury is dangerous and expensive, so my idea of lead balls in water (the water to cut down on the noise) is an alternative.

Huge farms of such wheels will generate energy continuously. No need for solar, wind, geo, etc. when every home could have its own wheel charging batteries, or generating hydrogen and oxygen from electrolysis, etc.
Cheap, easy to maintain, weather-independent alternative supply of energy.

Scale up, now. This is an old invention so does not need patenting. Bhaskaracharya is for the world to follow for free energy, reliably, everywhere, everytime.

Well, we do need hydrogen for fuel and transport, and myriad other uses.

For fuel cells, to replace jet engines and rockets with my Internal Force Engines.

What a wonderful world my grandchildren will inherit!
This will happen, despite the great, great bastards-in- charge (professors, politicians, physicists, pimps, presstitutes and prostitutes).
Not all the pandemics and nuclear wars they may initiate will stop such a future.
