The Schiffgens clip was an absolutely cringe inducing performance worthy the Gong Show. Lynch was heroic. He did his best to treat Schiffgens with respect and well as keep an angry mob from storming the stage. Bless his heart. The TM critics have always had plenty of ammo available to dissuade people from starting TM. This clip is just one more bomb in the arsenal. They will persist and may dissuade a few here and there, but they will not prevail. People who want to start TM will start regardless of any amount of dirty laundry the TM critics unload. It might even make some folks curious enough to start TM just to see what all the fuss was. It's much more exhilarating for TM critics to say, "Hey, look at that idiot, Schiffgens, if you do TM you might end up like HIM," than say, "Lynch has the patience of a saint, if you do TM you might end up like HIM." In either case, it is a mistake to judge the value of TM by the actions of an idiot or a saint. There is no measure of idiocy or sainthood before, during or after TM. Whether we witness the actions of Schiffgens the buffoon, Lynch the angel of mercy or Bevan the fascist bully, TM will prevail as wholly separate from them.
