You are assuming that we humans have senses only capable of detecting physical reality input. From my experience we humans also have what could be called our "nonphysical senses." We use these to percieve nonphysical reality input. Some of these nonphysical senses are corollaries to our physical senses, but are a much broader range of sensory experience. These senses, again from my experience, continue after physical death and so while your assumption that
"Our ... deprived of all sensory input " could lead to your conclusion, sensory input in my opinion, continues after physical death, it is nonphysial reality input, and this conflicts with your conclusion.
Your statement that "All that exists does so under the laws of physics that govern the universe" in my opinion neglects the existence of nonphysical realities, such as various afterlife realities. These nonphysical realities, judging by the experience of hundreds upon hundreds workshop participants, verifiable exist, as do the nonphysical senses we use to percieve within them.
