The Muslims use the term Salam as form of greeting. What does the word mean? ‘Sa’ refers to sat, the Lord who is the embodiment of Truth, Awareness and Bliss (Sat-Cit-ananda), ‘La’ means ‘layam’ (mergence), Salam means merging in the Supreme who is also the embodiment of Truth and Bliss. The Christians also have similar expressions for indicating submission to the Divine. (SSS Vol.18, p. 187)
