In Buddhism

2. Suyama. A devaputta, chief of the Yama devas (A.iv.242; D.i.217). The courtesan, Sirima, was reborn after death, as the wife of Suyama (SNA.i.244). When the Buddha descended from the deva world to earth, at Sankassa, Suyama accompanied him, holding a yaks tail fan (valavijana). DhA.iii.226; Vsm.392; cf. BuA.239; J.i.48, 53; Mhv.xxxi.78.

厂耻测补尘腻 is a Sanskrit compound consisting of the terms su and 测补尘腻 (啶ぎ啶�).
: Cologne Digital Sanskrit Dictionaries: Edgerton Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit Dictionary厂耻测腻尘补 (啶膏啶ぞ啶�).鈥�(= Pali id.), name of the head of the y腻ma (q.v.) gods: 厂耻测腻尘补devaputrapramukh腻岣� y腻m腻 (so read with v.l. and Calcutta (see LV.), supported by Tibetan, for Lefm. suy腻m腻) dev腻岣� Lalitavistara 364.15; y腻m腻dhipati峁冣�a suy腻ma峁� 惭补丑腻惫补蝉迟耻 i.265.6 (so read for Senart Va-suy腻m腻, v.l. ca Suy腻m腻); note also Lalitavistara 58.21; 302.6, in both of which the official position of S. is clear from the context; apparently the same, in general clearly a single individual, lord of his class, Lalitavistara 44.10; 58.21; 241.1; 441.17; (formally not clear whether sg. or pl., but surely sg., Lalitavistara 50.5; 327.18; 328.3;) 惭补丑腻惫补蝉迟耻 i.208.13; 230.13; 263.19; ii.11.1; iii.315.6; 惭补丑腻惫测耻迟辫补迟迟颈 3138; (膧谤测补-)惭补帽箩耻艣谤墨尘奴濒补办补濒辫补 69.5 (misprinted Say腻ma); 叠辞诲丑颈蝉补迟迟惫补产丑奴尘颈 340.14; cases where Su掳 seems to be pluralized, as if used for the class of y腻ma gods as a whole, are probably only apparent; so da艣a ca 厂耻测腻尘补-devar腻ja-sahasr腻峁噄 骋补峁囜笉补惫测奴丑补 118.22, compare the parallel da艣a ca 艣akra-devendra-艣atasahasr腻峁噄 119.1 (艢akra was certainly a single individual; similar phrases with Va艣avarti 117.21; Sunirmita 118.3; and Sa峁僼u峁ta 118.15); compare 骋补峁囜笉补惫测奴丑补 185.7; similarly in 骋补峁囜笉补惫测奴丑补 249.21 厂耻测腻尘补- devar腻ja- is followed in 22 by parallel 艢akra-devar腻ja- (and preceded by Va艣avarti- 17, Sunirmita- 18, and Sa峁�- tu峁ta- 20, all names of the individual rulers of their classes); and likewise 骋补峁囜笉补惫测奴丑补 331.8. Accordingly we should interpret 厂耻测腻尘补 pati岣� 搁腻峁ａ弓谤补辫腻濒补辫补谤颈辫峁沜肠丑腻 52.18 and Suy腻m腻dhipatir 顿补艣补产丑奴尘颈办补蝉奴迟谤补.g. 53(79).14 as 厂耻测腻尘补 the Lord (of y腻ma gods). In the 顿补艣补产丑奴尘颈办补蝉奴迟谤补.g. passage we find, to be sure, as a parallel, trayas- tri峁兣浤錮hipo bhavet 53(79).8, which can only mean lord of the Trayastri峁兣沘 (class); but note Sa峁僼u峁t腻dhipo 22, Sunirmit腻dhipo 54(80).1, and Va艣avart墨艣varo (the Lord 痴补艣补惫补谤迟颈苍) bhavet 9 (in all these adhipo, 墨艣varo may be separate words, not necessarily parts of cpds.!) and especially Brahm腻 s腻hasrik腻dhipa岣� 17. So in the 搁腻峁ａ弓谤补辫腻濒补辫补谤颈辫峁沜肠丑腻 context we find (52.17, verse) Brahm腻pi 艢akra api lokapati岣� bhavate ca Sa峁僼usita devapati岣� (may be read as separate words!), (18) Paranirmito 'pi ca 厂耻测腻尘补 pati岣� (this may also be two words!)鈥�

Sanskrit, also spelled 啶膏啶膏啶曕啶むぎ啷� (蝉补峁僺办峁泃补尘), is an ancient language of India commonly seen as the grandmother of the Indo-European language family (even English!). Closely allied with Prakrit and Pali, Sanskrit is more exhaustive in both grammar and terms and has the most extensive collection of literature in the world, greatly surpassing its sister-languages Greek and Latin.
