Here's the thing with the ol' mind vs. matter
There is really no good model, explanation or mechanism for mind in a physical view except to wave a magic wand, say, "Look, it's in the brain," and try to get the philosophers not to look behind the curtain in the corner.
On the other hand, not only are all the physical realities we hold as so obviously true perfectly workable as nothing more than ideas, it cannot be demonstrated that they ARE more than ideas. After all, a bridge will stand as well in a physical universe, in the Matrix, or in the mind of God.
