Callandor, the fearful blade and the blade of ruin.

Light is held before the maw of infinite void, and all that he is can be seized.
The blade will bind him by twain.
I expect someone else may have mentioned this already, but I haven't been able to find any thread on the subject. So, given that Callandor magnifies Shai'tan's Taint, that Rand and Moridin's link comes from the touching of Moridin's True Power with Rand's own balefire, and that the sword is supposed to make him vulnerable, I suspect that when Rand uses Callandor he may become susceptible to Moridin's influence. This is how it will "bind him by twain" and how the Shadow will attempt to seize him.
That's pretty much it. Fits neatly with some of the existing theories, and sounds simple enough to me.

The first rule of being a ninja is "do no harm". Unless you intend to do harm, then do lots of harm.

Only problem is that logically it is risky, the DO is god. Killing Rand might just free him

And unless it can be justified that this won't occur, that risk is a pretty huge problem
