Meaning:-

aim̐ (ऐँ) is the aiśvarya mātṛkā and Sarasvatī bīja indicating wealth and also represents and bestows immense knowledge, mastery in arts and amazing creativity.

hrīm̐ (ह्रीँ) is the Māyā bīja consisting of - h = Brahman/śiva, r = fire and drive within us, ī = energy and the source of all power that helps us ascend, m̐ = removal of all miseries and facilitator of self-realization and ultimate liberation.

śrīm̐ (श्रीँ) is the Lakṣmī bīja meaning wealth, prosperity and fruition bestowing bīja. It consists of – śa indicating mahālakṣmī, repha (ra) indicating dhana or wealth, ī indicating tuṣṭi or satisaction, nāda indicating parā or śakti and vindu indicating duḥkhahara or removal of all miseries.

hsauḥ (ह्सौः) – the prasāda parā bīja formed of combining ‘h’ = Brahman/śiva, with the parā bīja sauḥ, culminating in the experience of self-realization and ultimate liberation.

Vada (वद) – the word literally translates to speech. The double utterance here is to enhance our speech and oratory skills, as well as our knowledge.

Vāgvādini (वाग्वादिनि) – the Divine Mother who governs speech, knowledge, arts and music.

klīm̐ (क्लीँ) consists of – ka is for kāmadeva/kṛṣṇa indicating desires and wishes, la for indra indicating victory, ī for tuṣṭi indicating satisfaction, m̐ for sukha meaning happiness and removal of misery.

The triple utterance of the Kāma bīja mantra is to indicate Her desire and prevalence with the acts of Creation, Preservation and Destruction, as well as all the triads. Likewise with the Sarasvatī and Māyā bījas.

Nīla sarasvati (नीलसरस्वति) – The blue complexioned divine mother Nīla Sarasvati, who represents the highest knowledge leading towards self-realization and ultimately liberation. The blue color itself can be seen as the vastness of space and the void, signifying a thoughtless deep sleep state.

Kāhi (काहि) – A time factor spanning yugas, meaning thousands of years. The emphasis is that the blessings remain forever by the grace of the Divine Mother.

svāhā (स्वाहा) – is oblations and submission to the deity.
