The Post Office is a 1912 play by Rabindranath Tagore. It concerns Amal, a child confined to his adoptive uncle’s home by an incurable disease. W. Andrew Robinson and Krishna Dutta note that the play 'continues to occupy a special place in [Tagore’s] reputation, both within Bengal and in the wider world.' The pulsating desire that Amol feels throughout the play to leave the constricted scope of the household and experience the larger world actively through his senses is something that most of us share by now. I realised that Daakghar made more sense than ever, now that I have understood the concept of home quarantine not only theoretically, but as the unnerving ground reality.

The self being the vessel that gathers and holds gives us the opportunity of giving up. If we believe only in self then we anxiously cling to our stores which causes...
