Samhain Gods – Yama – Hindu
Yama
Yama or Yamarāja is a god of death, the south direction, and the underworld, belonging to an early stratum of Rigvedic Hindu deities. In Sanskrit, his name can be interpreted to mean “twin”. In the Zend-Avesta of Zoroastrianism, he is called “Yima”.
According to the Vishnu Purana, Yama is the son of sun-god Surya and Sandhya, the daughter of Vishvakarma. Yama is the brother of Sraddhadeva Manu and of his older sister Yami, which Horace Hayman Wilson indicates to mean the Yamuna. According to the Vedas, Yama is said to have been the first mortal who died. By virtue of precedence, he became the ruler of the departed, and is called “Lord of the Pitrs”.
Mentioned in the Pāli Canon of Theravada Buddhism, Yama subsequently entered Buddhist mythology in East Asia, Southeast Asia and Sri Lanka as a Dharmapala under various transliterations. He is otherwise also called as “Dharmaraja”.
Hinduism
In Hinduism, Yama is the lokapala (“Guardian of the Directions”) of the south and the son of Surya. Three hymns (10, 14, and 35) in the 10th book of the Rig Veda are addressed to him. In Puranas, Yama is described as having four arms, complexion of rain cloud with wrathful expression, surrounded by garland of flames, protruding fangs, dressed in red, yellow or blue garments, holding noose and mace or sword, and riding a water-buffalo. He wields a noose with which he seizes the lives of people who are about to die.
According to Hindu itihasa, Yama is the son of Surya and Saranyu. He is the twin brother of Yami, brother of Shraddhadeva Manu and the step brother of Shani. His wife was Goddess Dhumorna and his son was Katila.
Buddhism
In Buddhism, Yama (Sanskrit: यम) is a dharmapala, a wrathful god or the Enlightened Protector of Buddhism that is considered worldly, said to judge the dead and preside over the Narakas (“Hell” or “Purgatory”) and the cycle of rebirth.
The Buddhist Yama has, however, developed different myths and different functions from the Hindu deity. In Pali Canon Buddhist myths, Yama takes those who have mistreated elders, holy spirits, or their parents when they die. Contrary though, in the Majjhima Nikaya commentary by Buddhagosa, Yama is a vimānapeta – a that has a mixed state.
In other parts of Buddhism, Yama’s main duty is to watch over purgatorial aspects of Hell (the underworld), and has no relation to rebirth. His sole purpose is to maintain the relationships between spirits that pass through the ten courts, similar to Yama’s representation in several Chinese religions.
He has also spread widely and is known in every country where Buddhism is practiced, including China, Korea, Vietnam, Japan, Bhutan, Mongolia, Nepal, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos, and United States.
China
In Chinese texts, Yama only holds transitional places in Hell where he oversaw the deceased before he, and the Generals of Five Paths, were assigned a course of rebirth. Yama was later placed as a King in the Fifth Court when texts led to the fruition of the underworld that marked the beginnings of systemizations.
Japan
Yama can be found in one of the oldest Japanese religious works called Nipponkoku Genpō Zenaku Ryōiki, a literary work compiled by the Monk Keikai in 822. Yama was introduced to Japan through Buddhism, where he was featured as a Buddhist divinity. He holds the same position title as other works depict him – a judge who imposes decisions on the dead who have mistreated others.
Naraka (Hindu)
Naraka in Hinduism serves only as a temporary purgatory where the soul is purified of sin by its suffering. In Hindu mythology, Naraka holds many hells, and Yama directs departed souls to the appropriate one. Even elevated Mukti-yogyas and Nitya-samsarins can experience Naraka for expiation of sins.
Although Yama is the lord of Naraka, he may also direct the soul to a Swarga (heaven) or return it to Bhoomi (earth). As good and bad deeds are not considered to cancel each other out, the same soul may spend time in both a hell and a heaven. The seven Swargas are: Bhuvas, Swas (governed by Indra), Tharus, Thaarus, Savithaa, Prapithaa, and Maha (governed by Brahma).
Naraka (Sikhism)
The idea of Naraka in Sikhism is like the idea of Hell. One’s soul, however, is confined to 8.4 million life cycles before taking birth as a human, the point of human life being one where one attains salvation, the salvation being sach khand. The idea of khand comes in multiple levels of such heavens, the highest being merging with God as one. The idea of Hell comes in multiple levels, and hell itself can manifest within human life itself. The Sikh idea of hell is where one is apart from naama and the Guru’s charana (God’s lotus feet (abode)). Without naama one is damned. Naama is believed to be a direct deliverance by God to humanity in the form of Guru Nanak. A Sikh is hence required to take the Amrit (holy nectar/water) from gurubani, panj pyare (khanda da pahul) to come closer to naama. A true Sikh of the Gurus has the Guru himself manifest and takes that person into sach khand.
Naraka (Buddhist)
Naraka is usually translated into English as “hell” or “purgatory”. A Naraka differs from the hells of western religions in two respects. First, beings are not sent to Naraka as the result of a divine judgment and punishment; second, the length of a being’s stay in a Naraka is not eternal, though it is usually very long. Instead, a being is born into a Naraka as a direct result of his or her previous karma(actions of body, speech and mind), and resides there for a finite length of time until his karma has exhausted its cumulate effect.
East Asian mythology
Mandarin Diyu, Japanese Jigoku, Korean Jiok, Vietnamese Địa ngục literally “earth prison”, is the realm of the dead or “hell” in Chinese mythology and Japanese mythology. It is based upon the Buddhist concept of Naraka combined with local afterlife beliefs. Incorporating ideas from Taoism and Buddhism as well as traditional religion in China, Di Yu is a kind of purgatory place which serves not only to punish but also to renew spirits ready for their next incarnation. This is interchangeable with the concept of Naraka.
In Japanese mythology, Enma-O or Enma Dai-O judges souls in Meido, the kingdom of the waiting dead. Those deemed too horrible are sent to Jigoku, a land more comparable to the Christian hell. It is a land of eternal toil and punishment. Those of middle note remain in meido for a period awaiting reincarnation. Others, of high note, become honored ancestors, watching over their descendants.
Related concepts
Yama and Ymir
In a disputable etymology, W. Meid (1992) has linked the names Yama (reconstructed in Proto-Indo-European as *yemos) and the name of the primeval Norse frost giant Ymir, which can be reconstructed in Proto-Germanic as *umijaz or *jumijaz, in the latter case possibly deriving from PIE *ym̥yos, from the root yem “twin”. In his myth, however, Ymir is not a twin, and only shares with Yama the characteristics of being primeval and mortal. However, Ymir is a hermaphrodite and engenders the race of giants.
In Iranian mythology
A parallel character in Iranian mythology and Zoroastrianism is known as Yima Xšaēta, who appears in the Avesta. The pronunciation “Yima” is peculiar to the Avestan dialect; in most Iranian dialects, including Old Persian, the name would have been “Yama”. In the Avesta, the emphasis is on Yima’s character as one of the first mortals and as a great king of men. Over time, *Yamaxšaita was transformed into Jamšēd or Jamshid, celebrated as the greatest of the early shahs of the world. Both Yamas in Zoroastrian and Hindu myth guard hell with the help of two four-eyed dogs.
It has also been suggested by I. M. Steblin-Kamensky that the cult of Yima was adopted by the Finno-Ugrians. According to this theory, in Finnish Yama became the god cult Jumula and Joma in Komi. According to this hypothesis, from this cult, the Hungarians also borrowed the word vara which became vár ‘fortress’ and város ‘town’. (ibid)
In Javanese culture
There is Yamadipati in Javanese culture, especially in wayang. The word adipati means ruler or commander. When Hinduism first came to Java, Yama was still the same as Yama in Hindu myth. Later, as Islam replaced Hinduism as the majority religion of Java, Yama was demystified by Walisanga, who ruled at that time. So, in Javanese, Yama became a new character. He is the son of Sanghyang Ismaya and Dewi Sanggani. In the Wayang legend, Yamadipati married Dewi Mumpuni. Unfortunately, Dewi Mumpuni fell in love with Nagatatmala, son of Hyang Anantaboga, who rules the earth. Dewi Mumpuni eventually left Yamadipati, however.
In Buddhist temples
In the Buddhism of the Far East, Yama is one of the twelve Devas, as guardian deities, who are found in or around Buddhist shrines (Jūni-ten, 十二天). In Japan, he has been called “Enma-Ten”. He joins these other eleven Devas of Buddhism, found in Japan and other parts of southeast Asia: Indra (Taishaku-ten), Agni (Ka-ten), Yama (Emma-ten), Nirrti (Rasetsu-ten), Vayu (Fu-ten), Ishana (Ishana-ten), Kubera (Tamon-ten), Varuna (Sui-ten) Brahma (Bon-ten), Prithvi (Chi-ten), Surya (Nit-ten), Chandra (Gat-ten).

Aries (March 21-April 19)
Be careful about negative thinking today because it might colour your relations with siblings, relatives and daily contacts. You might feel unappreciated. You might even feel unloved. The celestial vibes encourage this kind of thinking today but it is fleeting! Don’t believe it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Your financial situation might look bleak from your point of view today. You might feel broke. You might also feel that others don’t appreciate your contributions. The thing to know is that today is the kind of day where things look worse than they really are.
Gemini (May 21-June 20)
Relations with parents, bosses, teachers and the police, will be tested and challenging today. This is definitely not the day to ask for permission or approval. Their response will be, “Talk to the hand!” Just coast and carry on, business as usual.
Cancer (June 21-July 22)
Today it’s easy to feel lacking and have self-doubts. (“I’m navel lint.”) But this is just the mood of today. Don’t believe it. It’s not true. Nevertheless, these feelings will make you feel cut off from others. Lonely and feeling unwanted. Fortunately, this is a temporary dark cloud on your horizon.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
Expect to have difficulty dealing with friends and members of groups today. You might feel cold and insensitive to others, which is why they won’t respond to you. Or vice versa, you think they’re cold and insensitive to you. Either way, there’s a failure of communication. It’s temporary.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
This is a tough day to talk to bosses, parents and people in authority, including the police. Don’t even go there. You will not get a helpful response. Instead, pull your cards in close to your chest. Cope as best you can until tomorrow.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
News in the media or news about travel plans or something to do with legal or medical matters might depress you today. You feel overwhelmed and helpless. But this is actually not the case. It’s just how you feel. Today things look are worse than they really are.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
You might be disappointed in your fair share of something. Or you might be disappointed that someone was not forthcoming with more help and support. It’s just what it is. The other person might also feel unappreciated or left out in the cold.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
It’s hard to relate to those who are closest to you today because feelings of internal negativism make you unfriendly. You’re withdrawn. This is why separations might occur today. People don’t understand each other and are too quick to assume the worst.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
You might find your job or something to do with your health or even a pet to be onerous today. It’s too much to handle. No one will help you. Feelings of resentment will make you pull in your own energy and refuse to help others. It’s a classic misunderstanding. (Gone by tomorrow.)
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
Parents must remember to be gentle with their kids today because it’s easy to fall into negative thinking. Perhaps they’re making too many demands about Halloween costume? Or perhaps you feel anxious about a party? Get things in perspective. Tomorrow things look much better!
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Discussions with an older family member or a parent will be difficult today. They seem to be in cooperative and insensitive. (Very likely, that’s how they see you.) This is a poor day for family communications. Just move on because tomorrow is a much better day.
If Your Birthday Is Today
Actress Nia Long (1970) shares your birthday today. You give yourself wholeheartedly to whatever interests you. Invariably, your infectious enthusiasm encourages others to join your efforts. This is a slower paced year for you. It’s time to rejuvenate your energy; and focus on business and personal relationships. Don’t hesitate to ask for help.
Aries (March 21-April 19)
You are going to be quite conflicted today unfortunately because you might experience some contradictory opinions around you and coming from people you trust and cherish.
But it seems you need to put your mind at work and have your own decisions, because although other people care about you, they don’t live your life.

Your health is normally easy to maintain as you like growing your own food. You stick to a diet that is high in fiber and protein but low in calories. As a norm, you do a body cleanse to rid yourself of daily toxins put in by pollutants in the air and by the additives in your drink and food when you can’t eat right. However, when it comes to going to the gym and working out, this is not your style. You like to be active but usually, it’s not by physical exercise.
The October 30 is birthday meanings show that you are perceptive, compliant, and charismatic. You could be a curious soul however, you love to learn. Learning, you feel, is not just textbook calculations but real life situations. You love with such an intensity that you can’t be denied the lusty pleasures you so dream of.
