phrases

Greetings Can someone please explain what these two terms mean: To be a sacrifice, as in "I am a sacrifice to the True Guru" and To have ones honour preserved, as in "He Himself preserves the honour of His devotees". I think they may be Punjabi idioms like having ones destiny...

Many religions have phrases such as "Blessed Be" or "May God be with you". I notice on the forums here that there are lots of exchanges of greeting phrases. Is there a list around here or does someone care to share the various phrases and what they mean? Thanks. :)
