		Il Kesa è un mantello indossato da monaci e monache a mo’ di scialle al di sopra di altri indumenti (in particolare, un abito a maniche lunghe chiamato kolomo), e caratterizzato dalla suddivisione in aree verticali e orizzontali.
		Gli shiten o i kakuchô (frammenti quadrangolari di stoffa, situati agli angoli all’interno della cornice del Kesa) rappresentano i quattro punti cardinali e, nel contempo, i Quattro Guardiani d’Oriente (spesso ivi raffigurati) che, potenziando il simbolismo mandalico, hanno il compito di proteggere fisicamente il corpo avvolto dal mantello.
		I nove Kesa attribuiti all’imperatore Shômu, che abdicò nel 749 e si dedicò agli studi della regola buddhista, compaiono anche in un inventario del 756 insieme ad altri suoi oggetti personali nello Shôsô-in, il magazzino di uno dei più antichi templi del Giappone, il Todai-ji di Nara.

		UK electricals group Kesa today said sales at its flagship Comet chain were deteriorating as shoppers cut back on buying goods such as fridges and dishwashers.
		Kesa said like-for-like sales at Comet had dropped by 5% since the beginning of February — a bleaker performance than in the three months to April 30 when they fell 2.2%.
		Kesa boss Jean-Noel Labroue said demand for white goods was particularly weak, and its sales were being driven by digital and multimedia products instead.

		Elsewhere, Kesa said sales in its Belgian and Czech businesses are progressing well, but poor market conditions in the Netherlands are still having an adverse impact on sales there.
