SUMMARY: This body is the chariot; clothes are the streamers; the twelve
symbols called OorDhwapunDras are flags; mind is the throne; good intelligence
is the Kalash; good mind is the rein; three characters of Satvik, Tamas and
Rajas are the ropes; three controls are the place where the charioteer sits;
good and bad deeds (Punya and Papa) are the wheels and the ten organs are the
most efficient horses.
The description of human body in this manner is given in KaThOpanishat:

SUMMARY:
In this body-like chariot, Lord Vayu is always the charioteer; the beloved of Goddess
Lakshmi, Sri Hari is the rider or the occupant of the chariot. One who treats
his body in this manner, takes care of the body and protects it from sunlight,
rains and other vagaries but never develops the feeling of ‘ownership’ is a
Mahayogi, an ascetic.

This conception has been dealt
with in greater detail in Vayu Purana, ShAnDilyatattwa -18/33-36:

The
word Mamakara is not exactly or is not limited to egoism. The passion
DhrutaraShTra in Mahabharat displays towards his son Duryodhana is probably the
best example for this trait. It is passionate obsession, in a way. What is
needed is to discard this passionate obsession about the self and the structure
or the body. Human should think it as a temporary shelter provided by Lord Hari
and it is being driven by Lord Vayu. We are tenants and all our actions are
controlled, directed and monitored by Sri Hari.
