Even if Qui gon rigged the chance cube, I dont think it was un-jedi like. If slightly immoral acts could not be performed by jedi, even if they were justified by a greater good, then techniques like the jedi mind trick would be outlawed.
I always saw it as Yoda helping Luke get his head around the theory of the Force; that it is everything and that in its wake tangibility is meaningless. That is a hard concept to grasp, and the biggest problem with starting Jedi training when you are old enough to have been educated otherwise. Children have no such problem believing in these concepts
I think this is similar to Yoda telling Luke "Do or do not; there is no try!" Yoda is telling Luke: don't think about it (don't try it), just do it!
