IMPORTANCE OF DELUMINATOR

ONCE AGAIN I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO ANSWER THE QUESTION INBOXED IN OUR FACEBOOK PAGE WISDOM OF ALBUS PERCIVAL WULFRIC BRIAN DUMBLEDORE.

“To Ronald Bilius Weasley, I now present the deluminator, in a hope that when things seem most dark, it shall show him the light; in a hope that he remembers me, when he uses it”

Light is divinely supreme; it can wash away the darkness. Light is enigmatic; it can make us believe the reality. Light is the majestic teacher; it can show us the ways. It can germinate the sapling of conscience. “Light is love revealed; light is life manifested; light is God fulfilled”

Light is the past; light is the future.
Light is incessant, rather like time.
 Light is omnipotent; Light is omnipresent.
 Light is life; life is light.
Light is God hypostatized.

Light is the emblem of truth. It is indomitable; it is incapable of being trapped, except, perhaps, by the unknown almighty himself. Now, this is the key to Rowling’s secret. Light is supreme and Dumbledore is supremacy personified.

The deluminator is highly symbolic contraption.

Dumbledore is a great wizard; he can do great magic, oh yes, but he is capable of respecting the vitality of fundamentalism. Wise as he is, he has the knowledge of the deepest fabric of creation. He is not bewildered by, what they define, complexity. The intricacy buried in simplicity is only apparent to those who have mastered all the chapters of wisdom. This is the reason why Voldemort could never be as great as Dumbledore. Voldemort was baffled by complexity; he worshipped terror. He loved everything except love. He was a fool to not understand the elegant truth - love is light and light is love, both being undefeatable. Love is kind to those who love. She is even kind to those who do not love, for she does them a good turn, irrespective of severity.

“Happiness can be found even in the darkest of the times, if one remembers to turn on the light”

Dumbledore presented the deluminator to Ron because he feared that when things were to grow dark during their hunt of hallows, he may forget to turn on the light. Harry was brave enough to not allow darkness possess him and Hermione too wise. Dumbledore, naturally, knew Ron was vulnerable to darkness. He somehow understood that Ronald could be fooled by the evil magic. Ronald was brave, oh yes, but a child in heart. At the time when his deepest fear is tickled, he can be blind. Fear drives a man insane; it curtains the truth and induces illusion. It can make one do terrible things. Even Voldemort did terrible things because of his fear of death. This is the reason why Dumbledore presented ‘remembral‘ with a hope that when things seem most dark, it shall show him the light – with a hope that when righteousness inside him is affected, it shall show him the ‘way out’.

Indeed, when Ron was wearing the Locket of the Salazar Slytherin, a horcrux, it had tempted him to leave Harry and Hermione. Horcrux is the wickedest of all magical creations. It is an evil; so evil that it is forbidden even to speak of it. They are created by tampering the deepest mysteries of creation – the source of life and the essence of self and hence, they are to be feared and their owners pitied.

When Ron used the deluminator, after the parting, it ‘somehow’ directed him back to Harry and Hermione.

HAD HE FORESEEN THE FUTURE? WAS DUMBLEDORE SKILLED AT DIVINATION?

To answer this part I would like to copy the opinion of Jade Hallam, who commented his view (17 hours ago) on our post where we had posed the question.

Dumbledore wasn't particularly skilled at divination. He himself admitted that he never had the taste for the subject. But he had a dream, much like Harry in The Order of the Phoenix, he saw what would happen to Ron and the golden trio, he saw the death of Harry, he saw Voldemort become all powerful. He didn't want this to happen; whether it was a dream or a vision he did not know.  He had to give Ron a way back. He did this by giving Ron his deluminator. (This happened during Half Blood Prince when Dumbledore knew he was going to die)Furthermore he knew that Ron was the most vulnerable and to be protected.

I cannot vouch for the skilled-at-divination part but he was a skilled guesser!
