Actually it is the hands which create the illusion that it is your mind which creates the illusion. Since the hands create the illusion everything else is naturally part of the illusion.

Why in particular the hand?
Earlier you'd said something about "we move our hands with our mind". I was looking to challenge the idea that we the 'jockey' of our bodies sit in our heads and everything else is part of the vehicle. Why the head other than what we know about the crucial role of our brains. Even though that is true, it doesn't mean that our 'felt experience' needs to posit an inner location in the head.
