He Used The True Power Again

[Mandro]

Rand isnt stupid enough to use the TP again. He might be able to, but he wouldnt, unless at the uttermost end of need.

 

The Three becoming one, isn't about 2 women and a man using callandor, it is Saidar, Saidin and the True Power being focused T?HROUGH callandor.

quotes, backup evidence?

 

It's supposition, but RJ liked 3's, and 3 3's makes sense. It's not just 3 people wielding the power in combination, but of 3 wielding all 3 powers all in combination. I bet I'm right on it. My big question is the other 3 that makes it 3 3's.

How much Power can the Dragon or DR manage unaided? It seems to be some crazy amount.

 

"He closed his eyes, drawing in more and more of the power, feeling as he had only TWICE before. Once when he had cleansed saidin. Once when he had created this mountain".

Well, when LTT created the Dragonmount, he didn't have Choeden Kal. So LTT must've been pretty crazy strong to be able to draw as much Saidin unaided as Rand did with Choeden Kal on top of the Dragonmount (And Cleansing).

 

Anyhow, I guess it's possible that LTT's paralis-net had sa'angreal in it.

Still not sure what Philosophy classes Ishy took that led him to pick the DO's side. Must have been quite depressing.

 

Pick any two more-or-less evenly matched fighters, sports teams, anything. Then imagine they are going to go against each other ten billion times. Ishamaels reasoning is that one side simply cannot win every single contest. If all it takes for the Creators side to be permanently out of the game would be for them to lose one contest out of the ten billion, it seems almost certain the Crators side IS going to be out, its only a question of when.

 

Doesnt matter what philosopgy discipline or "classes" he followed.

 

Depending on if the wheel is infinite circular in a linear manner meaning that each turning is new and unique OR it's a infinite circular closed loop which means it stretches on for infinity but after infinity the pattern loops. The latter seems like what the book implies because of the past is the future bit. Though infinite closed loop is impossible at least in human concept because if infinity stretches on forever how can you loop what has no end. If the past is the future you could put into doubt that the DO can win since it would mean that all turnings and the infinite possibilities of each turning have already happened in the past thus denying Ishamael's logic since the Dark Uno has already lost.

 

But then there is the logic that even if it is a infinite circular closed loop that the DO breaking free would create a paradox and break the pattern(literal word) of the pattern.

 

Rand started to get Ishamaels logic but he realized that each turning and life was a new chance at life and love. Each life you start new and don't keep the burdens and mistakes of the past lives though maybe Ishamael does because he is bound to Rand.
