Magpie:
I know of the idea, I didn't think you made it up, but I don't 
Dumbledore ever showing that he was living by that idea or reaching 
any higher state of Magical or spiritual development. He was a great 
wizard because he was powerful. He didn't seem to have much in the way 
of a higher consciousness that I saw. Machiavellian more like. 
Fighting Voldemort isn't, imo, like a Buddhist Monk trying to reach 
Nirvana.
