Laghu Shodashi has 16 beejaksharas where as Mahashodashi has 28 beejaksharas. Both form part of Sri Vidya. After Laghu Shodashi, Mahashodashi is initiated, which is the Ultimate mantra in Sri Vidya.

Its not Siva. Its Sivaa, which means the female form of the siva. Both Siva and Shakti are same. The form or energy which doesn't move and always meditate is Siva. The form or energy which always moves is Shakti. When "ANYONE" sits in meditation and tries to realize oneself is called "SIVA". The very same person, when walks or performs any kriya for universal good is called "SHAKTI". You understand more clearly by "observing a glacier". The glacier is made up of water and when it is hard, its in the form of ice. When it moves, it is in the form of water.

Yes, you can do navavarana puja. You can also chant Dasamahavidya mantras, as you are rreciting this one time only and not as mantra japa.

Namaste. I got initiated with laghu shodasi. Can i perform the navavarna pooja? Also is that okay to recite dasa maha vidhya mantra which is part of the Pooja?

Adi Shakaracharya composed Saundaryalahari out of pure devotion and love for Divine Mother. Naturally, he would not have prescribed number of repetitions of each verse to derive certain material benefit. These prescriptions should have been added at a later date by somebody. Hence, this is not authentic.

Soundarya Lahari 17, like almost all the verses, says it has to be chanted like 1000 times a day for 40 or 45 days for it to have an effect. Is this true at all? It seems rather difficult to accomplish that with a pretty busy life.

Thanks for clarification. I speak spanish, I'm still learning english. But now I understood. There's no Matangi mantra to recite before my possible initiation? Namaskaram. Om Shantih

Do not add the ātma-bīja to this mantra. You may simply recite it 21 times, as an independent mantra by itself, before you begin this Mātaṅgī Devi mantra. Please note that this mantra should be recited with a proper initiation and also with the accompanying nyāsa-s.
