I just thought about an obviously simple, yet very deep answer:
an empty shell.
empty meaning both the peanut missing but mostly your body being no more than, say, a robot. Consciousness is you, it is all.
Err I'm confusing myself now, is (full) consciousness thesame as experiencing being? If so, then without consciousness you cannot be, which is weird to, because if there is a 'you', then you are your ego, and thus you are not fully conscious, and without consciousness you cannot be, which doesn't allow the ego to be, but the ego doesn't have a real consciousness, err?
