Can we be sensously aware without consciousness? I wondered (after this thread) what Buddhists have said about this question.

Can anyone, monks, Buddhas, ordinary people, be aware of a sensation without consciousness of it?

And moreover to link it to that question more explicitly, can such a sensation still be pleasant unpleasant or neutral. 

Thanks :) !
Short Answer: No.

Long Answer:

First, you'll need to define what you mean by consciousness.  If we take consciousness as "conscious awareness" then by definition, if you don't have consciousness of something, then you are not sensuously aware of it. 

However, it's possible that you may unconsciously register things that impact your consciousness later. For instance, if you get a "bad feeling" about someone, this may be due to you unconsciously registering several factors like quick facial sensations, tones being off-kilter, etc...
