Hi everybody. I am working on an art project piece tittled "Peace on Earth" and I am wondering the best translation of "Peace" in Sanskrit. I researched the website link given by the High Priestess Maxine but I'm very new to the language. Which do people think is best? Here are direct copies from the site, perhaps I missed a better one?

sandhitsu (p. 333) [ sam-dhitsu ] des. a. [&root;dhâ] wishing to conclude peace or an alliance, with (in.).
samya (p. 311) [ sâm-ya ] a. aiming at peace (sama); n. peace, reconciliation
