Neri:
The difficulty I see with your theory is that DD said "that power took
you to save Sirius tonight". So if it is some kind of a life force,
then it is a pretty altruistic life force.

This aspect of the mysterious power is further established by the fact
that, when the power was finally rising within Harry and kicking Voldy
out, it was when Harry was ready to die if he takes Voldy with him,
and when he thinks that "he'll see Sirius again".

This suggests that the mysterious power indeed opposes Death, but in a
subtler way than a simple life force. More than it is "Life", it is
"The Willingness to Die for What's Right" (if you can express this in
a single word).
