I remember your question. Its a great question. I can easily conclude that the rock IS Pure Consciousness. Does it experience PC though? I don't know. I have to first ask myself, what is the range of experience of a rock? Does it feel its temperature as it changes, does it feel water as it cools it? I recall Maharishi saying rocks have awareness, because they crack. I don't know the answer to your question.
