The Śrī Lalitā Pañcadaśākṣarī mantra is not commonly practiced. It is also called the Śuddha Pañcadaśākṣarī mantra and practiced only in very few guru traditions (paramparās). The mantra itself can be visualized as raw energy whose utilization and channeling, is through the variations such as the Saubhāgya Pañcadaśākṣarī, Ṣoḍaśī etc. There is also another characterization of Kalās (attribute śaktis associated with divisions of time and aspects of all triads), that sets Pañcadaśī at 15, Ṣoḍaśī at 16, Saptadaśī at 17 and Aṣṭadaśī at 18. Every one of these mantras is extremely powerful and are also very difficult to manifest their results. For this very reason, the path of Śrīvidyā follows a krama paddhati (gradual elevation through the worship of ancillary deities) and the mature sādhaka is administered the higher mantras after they have successfully navigated through the lower mantras of the aṅga devatās (ancillary deities). For all practical purposes and for most people (counting myself within this group), Śrī Mahāgaṇapati and Śrī Bālā are more than sufficient for achieving all desired results.

What is the difference between Sri Saubhagyavidya Pancadasaksari Mantra and the Pañcadaśākṣarī mantra? Is one superior than the other? Is the Sri Saubhagyavidya Pañcadaśākṣarī also a Mahā Ugra Mantra? Does one graduate from Saubhagyavidya Pancadasaksari to the Pañcadaśākṣarī mantra after he has completed the Purusharchana of the Saubhagyavidya Pañcadaśākṣarī mantra? Which is the superior mantra or are they the same? Can one of the Gurus here clarify about this?

Thank you so much for your response sir. I don't have diksha so will perhaps bug you over email or something. Please don't mind.

You can recite without an initiation as is. But if you wish to follow the Viniyoga (not published here), then initiation into Caṇḍī Navākṣarī would be most appropriate.

There are different traditions of Śrīvidyā and each one of them have different ways. The questions you have asked are specific to your tradition and your guru would be the best person to guide. From a general perspective, there are no guarantees of gaining mantra siddhi irrespective of the tradition that we follow. The deiies are not petty and do not seek your virtues. The sādhakas who have the utmost faith, understanding of the deity and the tantric processes and are also very sincere in their worship, are most likely eligible to gain siddhi of the deity's mantra. You may also wish to read about the Vāma mārga and Kaula mārga to gain further insight into the various traditions of tantra and this may help understand things better.

I am not aware of their practices. For all legitimate practices, there should be a śāstra pramāṇa (scriptural sanction). If the scriptures such as Paraśurāma Kalpasūtra do not mention of the same, then one can refer to the secondary tantras such as Mantra Mahodadhi, Śrīvidyārṇava Tantram etc. for verification. Ultimately, the onus lies with the guru who is providing the mantras and their word should be taken as sacrosanct and one can proceed with the initiated mantras. If there is no initiation, then it is best to NOT follow any texts either online or written or videos on the internet etc. but rather study them for a thorough understanding of the practices and seek a knowledgeable guru who can assist further. Proceeding further without a guru in matters related to mantra śāstra, may not lead to any success and in most cases leads to a lot of disappointment and disbelief in these practices.
