Because Voldemort never liked to do anything himself, remember? He always used others for everything. If not, he really had no need for the Death Eaters since he was more powerful than all of them, but he liked feeling like the 'emperor of the world'.
Also, it was not easy getting into the Department of Mysteries, even for him, because his mind did not work as the minds did of normal innocent students. He would never have been able to get through all those obstacles like Harry and his friends did. So he decided to take the easy way out and use Harry (and planned to kill him in the process as well).

No but as a young child he was much more smart then all of them. Dumbeldore himself called him the most able student. He has unimaginable knowledge of the magical world thus he was able to split his soul in 7 parts. I'm sure he could able to get into the department withought harry, i mean he showed up at the end didn't he?

Even later on he was smarter than all of them, but remember, Dumbledore told Harry that Voldemort did not yet want to reveal himself to the Wizarding World by going into the Department of Mysteries himself. Not because he was not powerful enough to defeat anyone who came against him, but because if he revealed himself, the Order of Phoenix would recruit more people, more people would join the cause to fight against him, and there would be resistance in the society. He did not want the OotP to have more support. If he did not reveal himself on the otherhand, and used Harry to get the Prophesy, the Wizarding World would still believe that Harry and Dumbledore were wackos to be claiming that Voldemort returned, and his purpose would become easier.
I'll try to find the exact quote for you from the fifth book.
Btw, I see that you're a fan of Geet, so am I.😃 It's an awesome show and Maneet are just the cutest couple ever!

Me too!šŸ˜ That ep was just sooooooooooooo cute, their first ever hug. And the good thing which I really like is that it was realistic. Not the usual cheesy first hug scenes with most TV couples😳, the way Maan holds her comfortingly without taking advantage of her situation or condition is just.......ā˜ŗļø
Is this the first time you are seeing Gurmeet and Drashti on TV, or did you see him in Ramayan and/or PPAW and Drashti in DMG?

Its everything about the show.....they really know what they're doing, they have the right timing and pace. They aren't rushing into their love story like some dramas, and you don't know why he even loves her in the first place but its also not really slow. every episode is just wowwwww.
i really love the way maan treats her....he wouldn't look at her while giving her her scarf, he was hesistant to touch her leg etc etc. AHHHHHH i'm in love. The faces he makes when he's angry (which is most of the time) are to die for.
i saw gurmeet in PPAW but i didn't think he was that good looking, but i loved the way he and debina were with each other. Such a down to earth guy. I LOVED MUSKAAN.....omg she litrally lighted up the screen with her bubbly personality. Drishti isn't like other acresses, honestly i think she's drop dead gorgeous but at the same time it seems effortless. she can carry of salwar kameez as well as western clothes which some actresses can't do.
Its really nice talking to you, i'm adding you on my buddy list

I agree, the show is fast paced but doesn't rush, and it's esp good that it doesn't drag like most shows. I love the pace right now and hope they stick to it.šŸ‘ And the storyline is attention grabbing too.
I didn't see Gurmeet much in PPAW, I caught a few epis mainly for him and Debina, but I mostly saw him and Debina as Ram and Sita in Anand Sagar's Ramayan remake (and that too because I am an avid fan of the original 1986 Ramayan by Ramanand Sagar), and that's how I was introduced to their acting. Most of my IF buddies followed them since their Mayavi days. They were together for Mayavi, Ramayan, and then PPAW before acting in different things, Gurmeet in Geet and Debina in the new Hindi film, Hyderbadi Damaad.
At first, I wasn't sure whether Gurmeet would do well with Drashti, because for his entire acting career so far, he was opposite Debina, but his onscreen chemistry with Drashti is great. And she's brilliant too.šŸ‘
Thanks for buddying me!😃 So sweet of you, I enjoyed talking with you too!

thts a good explanation! bt it was also because no other person except for the person the prophecy was made about can touch it! i.e. the prophecy was harry's and so he was the only one who could touch it! the prophecy is the secret weapon they talk about in the order of the phoenix!

WHY?????



The prophecy had been made.. Snape had overheard part of it..
Voldermort never knew then that there was more to it..
After he got into full power that at the end of goblet of fire .. He wants to hear it himself.. No one knows he has returned.. He cant expose himself in front of everyone...
The prophecy can be touched without getting hurt only by him and harry.. so he makes harry get it..
Hence the fight etc.......
