om̐ hūm̐ hrīm̐ klīm̐ aim̐ viparīta parabrahma mahā-pratyaṅgirāyai svāhā

ॐ हूँ ह्रीँ क्लीँ ऐँ विपरीत परब्रह्म महाप्रत्यङ्गिरायै स्वाहा ॥

Meaning:- May Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi, who is wide mouthed with large and sharp diamond teeth and a fire emitting tongue, consume all the karmas and liberate us from the cycle of births.

The bīja (seed mantra) om̐ () represents auspiciousness and is the śabda brahman or the Superconsciousness manifested as sound. This is also the Tārā bīja adding auspiciousness and protection from both Lord Śiva and Śakti. The ingrained ū’ within o’ of om̐, represents Lord Sadāśiva, an aspect of Lord Śiva representing the act of Creation after complete Annihilation and the ‘m̐ is nāda-bindu that dispels sorrow. The total signification is our complete transformation and re-birth into a spiritual entity.

The Kūrca bīja (seed) mantra hūm̐ (हूँ) consists of – ‘h’ is Brahman/Śiva, ‘ū’ is expansion of power and excellence, ‘’ is for removal of misery. The overall purpose is protection and stability.

The Mahāmāyā bīja (seed) mantra hrīm̐ (ह्रीँ) represents all the triads, such as Creation, Preservation and Destruction. It also signifies concentration, power, ambition and the drive to accomplish the desired results. The bīja hrīm̐ consists of – ‘h’ meaning Brahman/Śiva, ‘r’ meaning fire and drive within us, ‘ī’ meaning energy and the source of all power that helps us ascend, ‘’ is for removal of all miseries and facilitation of self-realization and ultimate liberation.

The kāma bīja (seed) mantra klīm̐ ( क्लीँ  ) represents the fulfillment of all desires, material and spiritual. In the context of this mantra, it is for spiritual desires. The bīja consists of – ‘ka’ is for Kāmadeva/Kṛṣṇa indicating desires and wishes, ‘la’ for Indra indicating victory, ‘ī’ for Tuṣṭi indicating satisfaction, ‘’ for Sukha meaning happiness and removal of misery.

The Aiśvarya mātṛkā and Sarasvatī bīja aim̐ (ऐँ )  indicates wealth and also represents and bestows immense knowledge, mastery in arts and amazing creativity.

The word ‘viparīta’ (विपरीत) means unconventional, reverse, inverse to the normal etc.

The word ‘parabrahma’ (परब्रह्म) refers to the Supreme Divine Super-consciousness.

The word ‘Mahā-pratyaṅgirāyai’ (महाप्रत्यङ्गिरायै) refers to the Supreme Divine Mother Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi. The word “Pratyaṅga” means a minor part of the body or can also mean every part of the body (prati-aṅga). The weapons of a deity are also considered as a part of the deity and not separate from it. In this case scenario of a minor body part, we can perceive the Divine Mother Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi as an ultimate weapon of Śakti, that brings about massive destruction such as the great crunch - pralaya. When we consider the second case scenario as the Whole aspect, then She is none that Śakti with all Her forms embedded in the Divine Mother Śrī Pratyaṅgirā Devi, who is then capable of everything, such as the manifestation of the dyads, triads etc.

The Vahni bīja mantra ‘svāhā’ (स्वाहा) – represents oblations and submission to the deity.
