But I can say that I suspect if I go to a brain lab and watch people do experiments and stuff, my observations will be pretty consistent with what you are saying.

The Universe exists within our minds, what lies outside the mind is the chaos from which we emerged and it's where we all return.
Existence is not going to explain itself to you, the universe doesn't think. Humans think, humans make sense of things, they find the reason for things, and reason grants meaning.

The universe as we experience it definitely exists within our minds.  This stuff about chaos and emergence. . . don't know where you are getting this form.  Making it up, I guess?
