I don't think the Dark One would allow Rand access to the TP. He doesn't know Rand, certainly can't trust him to do his bidding, and Rand is probably the most uncontrollable individual out there (we know the DO's a control freak). We know that Rand and Moridin's threads are connected somehow, and we know that there's a connection when they channel as well: Moridin becomes nauseous when Rand grasps the OP.
With this in mind, I think we have a good enough setup to exclude Rand channeling the True Power directly (the DO wouldn't have allowed it), and to include Rand channeling through Moridin via his link.

What will be the punishment for Moridin for allowing Rand to do what he did?

Given that LTT was more scared of the TP than of killing Min, I doubt the DO didn't intend it. *NM*

How do we know it wasn't part of the DO's plan?

That presumes that Moridin KNEW that Rand could access the True Power through their link...

You're assuming that Rand channeled the TP through Moridin

Well, it was win-win for the Shadow.

The Shadow aka Moridin doesn't want Rand dead because he might die with him

I agree, I think the Dark One DID give Rand permission to use the TP

I thought Rand was so desperate that he reached the True Power alone.

O saw no proof that he channelled through Moridin. *NM*

Not proof, but good reason.
