Séngyang, divinity, Godhead. This is a word in every one's mouth when speaking of the olden time, when the Javanese were still unconverted to Mohammedanism, and is prefixed to many Hindu names — as Séngyang Wisésa, Séngyang Guru, and the like. According to Mr. FRIEDERICH, it is derived from Hyang, which of itself is properly divinity, Godhead. In Bali occurs a place called Sad-kahyangan, which means the six temples or six divinity places. The word Hyang is also heard in the word Guriangor mountain spirit. Sang is no doubt also derived from Sanscrit; it appears to imply holy, sacred, and may have the same etymon as the Greek and Latin Sanctus. Thus in Sunda, the word is placed before simple Polynesian words, when in Pantuns, it is meant to endue some mere animal with supernatural power. Thus they say Sang-kĕbo or Sang-monyét, the divine buffaloe or the divine monkey. Sangha in Singhalese, C. 688, means multitude, number, collection; the Buddhist priesthood; a convocation of priests, five of whom constitute a Sangha. See Sang voce. The word is always heard as Séngyang, though evidently Sangyang would be more correct. You never hear Séng-kĕbo, Séng-monyét.
