Popular among some theosophists and adherents of esoteric Christianity is the conjecture that amen is a derivative of the name of the Egyptian god Amun (which is sometimes also spelled Amen).[12][13][14] Some adherents of Eastern religions believe that amen shares roots with the Sanskrit word, aum[15]. There is no academic support for either of these views[8]

In the Hindu pantheon, Yama is the god of death. I believe the OP was referring to that deity.

about ammon-ra or amen-ra:
i don't think so, but i do think amen is related to amen.
the "ra" addition, i think indicates a special god word or an adjectve. sorta like you have ba'al and ba'al-zebub.
Any ideas?
