I agree that this doesn't mean a 'living Aes Sedai' or even a 'reincarnation'. I'm rather thinking of something like a vacuole, whose ability to 'detach' from the pattern (and have time flow differently) has been mentioned, but which played a very minor role in the series (in the punishment of Moghedien, as I recall). Even then, it's probably a long shot, but the wording seems very strange.
Just another possibility. If a mirror world's time moves at a slower speed than Randland, then a person could enter a world, spend 300 days there and return 3000 years later.
All good things come to those who wait.
Another AoL Aes Sedai?

It's very possible that Rand only has access to his memories because of the Taint *NM*

Like Marshall said, I think it was more a turn of phrase

It's not really awkward; it's just a conversational trope that you've overscrutinized.
