Śrī Lalitā Pañcha Viṃśati-nāma Stotram 
The 25 Names of Lalita

अगस्त्य उवाच
वाजिवक्त्ररमहाबुद्धे पञ्चविंशति नामभि: |
ललिता परमेशान्या देहि कर्णरसायनम्  ||

Agastya uvāca:

Vāji-vaktra mahā-buddhe 
pañca-viṃśati nāmabhiḥ  
lalitā parameśānyā 
dehi karṇa-rasāyanam 

Sage Agastya said:
Oh Divine Hayagriva (the Horse-faced Lord), can you please reveal to me the secret of the twenty-five attributes of the Divine Mother Sri Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari, which are a nectarean elixir to our ears? 


श्री हयग्रीव उवाच
सिंहासनेशी ललिता महाराज्ञी वराङ्कुशा |
चापिनी त्रिपुरा चैव महात्रिपुरसुन्दरी ||

Śrī Hayagrīva uvāca:

siṃhāsaneśī lalitā 
mahārājñī varāṅkuśā 
cāpinī tripurā caiva 
mahā-tripura-sundarī 


Lord Hayagriva said:
The twenty-five attributes of the Divine Mother Sri Lalita Tripura Sundari are:
She is the empress who sits on the lion throne. She is the ever playful Divine Mother. She is the Supreme Divine Feminine and there is no one above Her. She who grants boons and holds a goad. She who holds the sugar cane bow. She who represents all the triads manifest in creation. She who is the beauty of the three cities. 

सुन्दरी चक्रनाथा च सम्राज्ञी चक्रिणी तथा |
चक्रेश्वरी महादेवी कामेशी परमेश्वरी ||

sundarī cakranāthā ca
samrājñī cakriṇī tathā 
cakreśvarī mahādevī 
kāmeśī parameśvarī 

She who is the epitome of beauty. She is the ruler of all chakras. She is the supreme queen. She is the center of the Sri Chakra. She is the great Goddess. She is love, pleasure, and desire. She is the supreme ruler. 

कामराजप्रिया कामकोटिगा चक्रवर्तिनी |
महाविद्या शिवानङ्ग-वल्लभा सर्वपाटला ||

kāmarāja-priyā kāma-
koṭigā cakravartinī 
mahāvidyā śivānaṅga-
vallabhā sarvapāṭalā 

She is the beloved of the God of Love. She fulfills all desires and wishes. She is the governess of all creation. She is the highest wisdom. She is joined with Lord Shiva. She is His Power. She is the repository of all things known and unknown. 

कुलनाथाम्नायनाथा सर्वाम्नायनिवासिनी |
शृङ्गारनायिका चेति पञ्चविंशति नामभि: ||

kulanāthāmnāya-nāthā 
sarvāmnāya-nivāsinī 
śṛṅgāra-nāyikā ceti 
pañca-viṃśati nāmabhiḥ 

She is the master of the Kula. She is the origin of Sri Vidya. She is the method of Sri Vidya itself. She has manifested all forms of divinity. She is beautiful and the force of eros and love. 

स्तुवन्ति ये महाभागां ललितां परमेश्वरीम् |
ते प्राप्नुवन्ति सौभाग्यमष्टौ सिद्धीर्महद्यश: ||

stuvanti ye mahābhāgāṃ 
lalitāṃ parameśvarīm 
te prāpnuvanti saubhāgyam-
aṣṭau siddhīr-mahadyaśaḥ 

The one who adores the Divine Mother Lalita Maha Tripura Sundari using these twenty-five names and contemplates their meaning will obtain immense fortune, fame, wealth, and high positions of prominence in society.

Hrim Shrim Klim Parameshwari Swaha

From the Maha-nirvana Tantra. Shiva instructs this mantra related to the supreme Shakti, the goddess herself, as the sum total of consciousness and energy in the universe. The Kula tantricas use this mantra to acheive oneness with Shiva by obtaining the grace of shakti. The Goddess is honored as 
HRIM, Love as the underlying quality of the universe who ceaselessly manifests herself in innumerable forms, 
SHRIM, beauty, light and auspiciousness and 
KLIM, the incredible magnetism of the divine. This seed sound amplifies the energies contain in the mantra around it and activates Kundalini Shakti, the energy of spiritual upliftment.
Parameshwari is the goddess as the Supreme Principle of reality, and it is said this mantra reunites Shiva and Shakti in the spiritual heart. 
This is a mantra with powerful spiritual energy that brings us into the Sacred Heart and is also used practically to heal relationships and attract and imbibe spiritual love in one's life.

Hrim Shrim Klim Parameshwari Swaha

From the third chapter of the Maha Nirvana Tantra. The first mantra Lord Shiva initiates the goddess into when she asks for spiritual instruction on how to know the Absolute:
OM Sat Chit Ekam Brahma. 

The scripture instructs:

Shri Sadashiva said:

Listen, then, O Beloved of My life! to the most secret and supreme Truth, the mystery whereof has nowhere yet been revealed (5).

Because of My affection for Thee I shall speak to Thee of that Supreme Brahman, Who is ever Existent, Intelligent, and Who is dearer to Me than life itself. O Maheshvari! the eternal, intelligent, infinite Brahman may be known in Its real Self or by Its external signs (5-6). That Which is changeless, existent only, and beyond both mind and speech, Which shines as the Truth amidst the illusion of the three worlds, is the Brahman according to Its real nature (7). That Brahman is known in samadhi-yoga by those who look upon all things alike, who are above all contraries, devoid of doubt, free of all illusion regarding body and soul (8). That same Brahman is known from His external signs, from Whom the whole universe has sprung, in Whom when so sprung It exists, and into Whom all things return (9). That which is known by intuition may also be perceived from these external signs. For those who would know Him through these external signs, for them sadhana is enjoined (10).

Attend to me, Thou, O dearest One! while I speak to Thee of such sadhana. And firstly, O Adye! I tell Thee of the Mantroddhara of the Supreme Brahman (11). Utter first the Pranava, then the words "existence" and "intelligence," and after the word "One" say "Brahman."

MANTRA

Om Sat chit ekam Brahma (12).

This is the Mantra. These words, when combined according to the rules of Sandhi, form a Mantra of seven letters. If the Pranava be omitted, it becomes a Mantra of six letters only (13). This is the most excellent of all the Mantras, and the one which immediately bestows Dharmma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha. In the use of this Mantra there is no need to consider whether it be efficacious or not, or friendly or inimical, for no such considerations affect it (14). Nor at initiation into this Mantra is it necessary to make calculations as to the phases of the Moon, the propitious junction of the stars, or as to the Signs of the Zodiac. Nor are there any rules as to whether the Mantra is suitable or not. Nor is there need of the ten Sangskara. This Mantra is in every way efficacious in initiation. There is no necessity for considering anything else (15). Should one have obtained, through merit acquired in previous births, an excellent Guru, from whose lips this Mantra is received, then life indeed becomes fruitful (16), and the worshipper receiving in his hands Dharmma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha, rejoices both in this world and the next (17).

He whose ears this great jewel of Mantra reaches is indeed blest, for he has attained the desired end, being virtuous and pious, and is as one who has bathed in a the sacred places, been initiated in all Yajnas, versed in all Scriptures, and honoured in all the worlds (18-19). Happy is the father and happy the mother of such a one – yea, and yet more than this, his family is hallowed and the gladdened spirits of the Pitris rejoice with th Devas, and in the excess of their joy sing (20): "In our family is born the most excellent of our race, one initiate in the Brahma-mantra. What need have we now of pinda offered at Gaya, or of shraddha, tarpana, pilgrimage at holy places (21); of what use are alms, japa, homa, or sadhana, since now we have obtained imperishable satisfaction?" (22)

We worship You, the three-eyed Lord, fragrant, nourisher of all beings - protect and liberate us from bondage of death, just like a cucumber is freed from its bondage from the vine.
