My answers are intuitive and common-sensical. (See Meditation on Universal Consciousness post for context.)
1. Which is your particular body or mind?
Consciousness is now the subject and it permeates all bodies and minds in its space.
2. Are the thoughts, emotions, or physical sensations of one body-mind complex any qualitatively different from those of any other body-mind complex?
No, they shouldn't be.
In heartfulness meditation, I have fleetingly experienced thoughts and images unconnected to my life. But there was no attachment or even much curiosity.
2a. Are they any more or less important?
No, I don't think so. A universal standpoint seems to preclude prioritisation of one body-mind complex over another.
3. What distinguishes consciousness in one body-mind complex from the consciousness in another?
Samskaras. They colour the actions and reactions of each BMC.
5. What about the consciousness existing in the space between the two complexes? How is it different?
It is not localized, and so has no ahamkara or has a universal ahamkara.
The term vaiswanara is close, but encompasses too much technical detail. Para Brahman is better.
