Yes, this is close to my view, though I have some differences with the buddhist view. Entanglement for the psyche is the opposite of alienation. At once distinct from, and at one with, the universe. I haven't yet fully worked it out. Might end up writing about it at some point.

Close, but not quite. That would be the classical newtonian way of thinking about it. More like general relativity: spacetime tells matter how to move, matter tells spacetime how to curve (J. A. Wheeler).
