Has anyone seen a TV series called "The Pretender"?
It is bascially about a man who can literary become anything that he wants to be, doctor, policeman, scientist, astronaut, lifeguard, professor etc.
He does so by something called 'simulations' and empthy. The key being that he does not just pretend he actually becomes the person he is trying to be.
He was taught the techniques since he was a kid.
Even though it is a sci-fi show the possible technquies resemble a larger version extended of borrowed genius.
What do you guys think, if you have seen the show?

Makes sense to me. If you believe in the collective unconsciousness it would be possible. According to Ken Wilbur that state of conscousness is only available when we are in the non dual state of mind. Its funny though because whenever we think about it we enter the duality of mind and as a result we are no longer able to comprehend the non duality nature. hehe

Very cool stuff.
I also had the same thought while watching it. Borrowed genius hey!
