My take on this basically boils down to saying both are true. This body is the medium through which my larger self expresses itself in three-dimensionality. This entire body could be seen as one "organ" in a much larger multidimensional system. The body's actions and behaviors reflect those of the higher self, but are still unique to this plane because of the heavily-distorted nature of life on earth.
Somewhat like how my liver is "mine" but it still does its own thing without the need for direct guidance from me.
The body is a puppet, but it's MY puppet. The thoughts in my head are mine, but they don't necessarily originate in this head, on this plane, because my larger self is so much bigger than this particular chunk of flesh. Some tbought-forms originate in the body, inspired by the bodily experiences, while others originate on the other side of the veil.
ALL of this is "me," and at the moment I see one of my own main challenges as being the further integration of these multiple points of view into a single cohesive experience-of-being.
