In my limited Buddhist experience I come to understand I am the author of my thoughts but my thoughts are not self. In fact (for me) there is no self. My thoughts arise and dissipate from my mind. I can choose to attach to the them or not. I can maintain a state of mind without self. I would call this state of mind the universal mind or original mind. Then a relief of "the bondage of self" is a training of my mind wile dissolving self. I strive to discipline my mind, to own my madness so to speak and not attach to it but let it go and return to my original mind or as I have read, a state of God consciousness.
