When faced with situations like this I have to remind myself that the
"doings of men" are not relevant compared to my own core reasons for
leading a spiritual life.
What do you want? Do you want to cultivate a Higher Consciousness in your
life? Or do you want to be like someone else (an idol?).
Don't let the shenanigans of other people interfere with your inner
standards and goals. The pure desire borne within you for spiritual
discovery should have nothing to do with Yogi Bhajan or his standards. He
has his own path.
I personally find edification in this stream of thought. It frees me to do
my best on my path, regardless of what I see going on around me.
