AND....Rand=Lews Therin and every incarnation and every life that the wheel has spun him out as for thousands of lives.

Rand realized that the voice he was hearing was his own, as far as being his "soul", or reincarnation. Quite a moment for Rand in that he became who he truly is: Lews Therin Reborn. With all the knowledge of his previous lives and actions and loves.

Reminds me of how Moridin is so amazingly aware of himself in the scheme of things.

Insanity cured? who knows....A more sane Rand with a clear view of himself and what he needs to do (in every aspect), yes.

Live after the Battle? I liked what Tam said...something to the effect of the Pattern rewarding him for saving the world.

Kinda wished this "clarity" of Rand would have happened a book or 2 sooner but it will be amazing to see what happens when Rand comes down from Dragonmount.
