Consciousness is universal and simply an aspect of the universe we live in. "Your" consciousness is not yours, and it's not specifically linked to you; the specific qualitative experience simply contains the experience of Ego and separation from the rest of existence. That is an illusion.
For that matter, the only thing in existence is also the combined totality of everything. Everything together as one unity, nothing separate. All separation between things is illusionary and arbitrary, a heuristic interface that does not match the true nature of reality.
The moment you stop thinking of things as truly and metaphysically separate, these questions stop being dilemmas.
