Every month of every year for thousands of years, Jews go outside in the dark of the night and we say "Kiddush Levana". We look up at the moon and we hope that this will be the month. We hope that this will be the time when Mashiach will finally come and our tzaros will go away and Hashem's name will finally get the glory it rightfully deserves. And right at the end of Kiddush Levana, we say a little tfila for Mashiach to arrive. We say "Dovid Melech Yisrael Chai Vekayam. Dovid Melech Yisrael Chai Vekayam." We declare that Mashiach ben Dovid is on his way. This should be the month when he finally arrives. What do we say immediately after we daven for Mashiach's arrival? We turn to our friend. We turn to our neighbor. We turn to our shul mates and we say "Shalom Aleichem Aleichem Shalom. Shalom Aleichem Aleichem Shalom." You want to know why we do that? Because that's the only way. Because that's the only way we're going to have another shot at Mashiach. Shiluy haguf v'zelzalos was sent away. Kavod z'lzalos is going to bring it back. How absolutely ridiculous it would be to ask Hashem for Mashiach while standing next to someone we can't say shalom aleichem to. The only way to bring Mashiach is kavod z'lzalos. That's the only way.
