Bestowing mana upon the Heavenly Pearls is not a simple matter, or rather, it is a very mentally and physically demanding task. On this point, the lamas of the Esoteric Sect are evidently much more reliable than the monks in the monasteries.
The consecration performed by most monks is just for show, with no actual work done—it's made clear that the item has been consecrated, followed by the collection of a hefty fee.
Even certain so-called enlightened monks "consecrate" items up to the point of being caught red-handed by the police during a raid on a brothel… They are essentially pulling the wool over people's eyes.
However, being a lama is quite a different story. Simply achieving the title of lama is no easy feat; it represents possessing profound Buddhist knowledge and the cultivation of a "consciousness" realm.
