Buddhist vestments were usually made from donated textiles or from garments that were cut into pieces and then assembled into patchwork onfigurations. Such donations constitute shôgon, or adornment of the Buddha\u2014realm, an act that results in the accumulation of karmic merit for the donor.This kesa consists of a type of cloth called karaori, in which the design is brocaded in long, floating silk wefts of many colors\u2014nine colors in this fine example.
