It is founded on the prophecy by Buddha Padmasambhava written in His Jewel Spike Testament : „At the end of the future age there will be many perverted practitioners who will treat the Dharma as merchandise. At that time all of you who obey my words, do not forsake the ten Dharmic Activities." These are : copying scriptures, making offerings, giving alms, listening to discourses, memorising, reading, expounding, reciting, reflecting upon and training in the meaning of Dharma.
