How do you say Peace on Earth in Sanskrit?

There are several ways to say "Peace on Earth" in Sanskrit, each with slightly different nuance:

* Prithivī śāntim: This is the most literal translation, meaning "Earth peace."

* Bhū-loke śāntir astu: This means "May there be peace on Earth." The word "astu" adds a sense of wishing or imploring.

* Saṁsarā śāntim: This uses the word "saṁsarā," which refers to the cycle of birth and death, making it more philosophical. It translates to "Peace in the cycle of existence."

* Jagatā śāntir astu: This uses the word "jagatā," meaning "world," emphasizing the global nature of peace. It translates to "May there be peace in the world."

Ultimately, the best translation depends on the context and the desired emphasis.
