The reason 'two halves of a whole' is relevant...

... is because they are meant to be complementary. They are meant to be used together. So obviously, it is no surprise that they can. The True Source - that is, both halves - turn the Wheel of Time.
The True Power and the True Source, on the other hand, are like oil and water. Actually, that's pretty much the actual description given every time the True Power Taint of saidin is referenced.
This doesn't mean that one can't use the True Power and One Power at the same time, though I would personally assume not, since they come from antithetical divinities, but it does demonstrate that the principle thta applies for the halves of the One Power does not apply to separate Powers.

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

Can a channeler embrace and use the True Power and the One Power at the same time? *NM*

I don't think anyone would have a reason to try and channel both powers at once *NM*

The context of the conversation should've been the clue.

Can TP users link with OP users, or even link at all? *NM*

Good questions! I was just wondering if there are a male and female halves of the TP.

There definitely are not two half of the TP (btw, anyone else irritated at the name similarity?)

The name "True Power" is simply Shadow propaganda. *NM*

What about the "bloody Power"? Band of the Red Hand propaganda?

Yeah, I think it would probably destroy the body of the person attempting it.

Such as showing how close Rand came to being the Shadow's Champion? *NM*

If that's the only purpose, awesome story potential has been wasted *NM*

I disagree. Rand almost destroyed the Pattern. That's pretty big IMO.

Good point. Fighting the DO with the TP is an Aridhol mindset. *NM*

He used the evil TP to balefire evil Semi. Be on the alert for Mordeth. *NM*
