So what if the Big bang and as such the universe is the creation of a Mind?  Our own existence is the best evidence that this is a possibility.

I'm pretty sure personhood is centered in the hands.  It is they which move themselves and at the same time create the illusion that we have a 'mind'.

Everything we know or can ever know is via our minds.If the mind is an illusion then everything else is also part of the same illusion. So this brings to question the very existence of the hand.
