 He sees the good in everyone, and what they bring to the table; in so doing, he makes sure that no one gets left behind, thus earning the respect and loyalty of his warren.

 The warren however, feels wrong to them (especially Fiver) due to the other rabbit's strange customs.

 After a day or two at their good land that Fiver had promised them, Hazel is named the unofficial chief rabbit of Watership Down.

Vaishravana 
 Vaiśravaṇa (Sanskrit वैश्रवण) or Vessavaṇa (Pāli वेस्सवण) is the name of the chief of the Four Heavenly Kings and an important person in Buddhism.
Vaishravana 
 The character of Vaiśravaṇa is set up on the Hindu god Kubera, but although the Buddhist and Hindu deities share some characteristics, both of them have different functions and myths.
Vaishravana 
 The mongoose is the enemy of the snake, which is a symbol of greed or hatred; the spitting out of jewels shows generosity.
Vaishravana 
 Vessavaṇa has the name "Kuvera" from a name he had from a past life as a rich mill-owner, who gave all the money he got from one of his seven mills to charity, and gave aid to the poor for 20,000 years.
Vaishravana 
 As with all the Buddhist deities, Vessavaṇa is properly the name of a person who has the god inside him rather than a permanent individual.
Vaishravana 
 Like other beings of the Cātummahārājika world, his lifespan is 90,000 years, but other sources say nine million years.
Vaishravana 
 He often brought the Buddha and his followers messages from the gods and other humans, and protected them.

Benzaiten 
 Worship of Benzaiten arrived in Japan in the 6th to 8th centuries, mainly through the Chinese translations of the Sutra of Golden Light .
Benzaiten 
 This is probably one of the sources of Sarasvati/Benzaiten's close link with snakes and dragons in Japan.
Benzaiten 
 She has a shrine on the Island of Enoshima in Sagami Bay, about 50 kilometers south of Tokyo; and a five-headed dragon and her are the main people in the Enoshima Engi, a history of the shrines on Enoshima written by the Japanese Buddhist monk Kokei (皇慶).

Purchasing power parity 
 There are two ways to measure GDP (total income of a country) of different countries and compare them.
Purchasing power parity 
 One way, called GDP at exchange rate, is when the currencies of all countries are converted into USD (United States Dollar).
Purchasing power parity 
 Purchasing power parity (PPP) is measured by finding the values (in USD) of a basket of consumer goods that are present in each country (such as pineapple juice, pencils, etc.).
Purchasing power parity 
 If that basket costs $100 in the US and $200 in the United Kingdom, then the purchasing power parity exchange rate is 1:2.
Purchasing power parity 
 Suppose that one gallon of orange juice costs $6 in Japan, and $2 in the US, i.e. $6 buys a good in Japan that can be purchased in the US for $2.
Purchasing power parity 
 Simply, 1 gallon of orange juice can be bought in Japan, versus 3 gallons in America, with an equivalent amount of money.
Purchasing power parity 
 According to orange juice prices, Americans have stronger purchasing power, or are able to buy more value with their money.
Purchasing power parity 
 In reality, a much wider range of goods that includes much more than just orange juice is taken to calculate the PPP index, so that it accurately reflects the average cost of living.
Purchasing power parity 
 The orange juice represents the previously mentioned "basket of goods" which represents the cost of living in a country.
Purchasing power parity 
 Therefore, even if a country has a higher GDP per capita (individual income), that country's people may still live poorer if the cost of living is higher.
Purchasing power parity 
 Because people in different countries buy different goods, it can be very hard to create an accurate market basket.
Warren (domestic) 
 A domestic warren is a man-made, enclosed establishment of animal husbandry that is used for the raising of domestic rabbits for meat and fur.
Warren
