While this is indeed in a way the most "simple" thing to do, I think that almost nobody is capable of doing it like that. Actually it happens about every 1000 years and then everybody is so impressed that a new religion is born.
Also, at some point the description of the levels of consciousness will get increasingly inaccurate as we get higher on the scale, since I do not really believe that Mr. Hawkins is enlightened. One would guess that acquiring fake PhDs is an activity that falls somewhat lower on the scale of consciousness.....
