Thank you everyone for your inputs. I observed that whenever i do panchakshari for a few weeks I become very detached and not interested in anything, which is great I guess for spiritual progress but not good for my current stage of life. That’s the reason I started with Devi to have a balance.

Hello krishna ji this is what i meant as tripurghana ji said "One last thing, the correct way to recite the Pañcadaśākṣarī is as if it were a three-syllable Mantra"

hi Sadhak, certainly it is a beginner prayer if taken as such. it is just an affirmation "I am Absolute Reality". nothing more than affirmation. but when you meet the Absolute Reality in Guru's face, he may bestow you Atmopasana through this diksha; make your I be truly That I through that diksha; my Guru said that mahasiddhas crave for such a diksha and rarely find it.

dear Kashik, what you have listed is an advanced sadhana, in which period blood/menstrual blood is considered pure and powerful, it is called Ananga Gandha in the Tantras, and it has to be chanted in specific ways, I will not go into much detail as this is not the platform for it

Hi Amargi can you tell more? because it is considered a basic, beginner prayer in certain sampradayas!

Vakratunda, it requires rarest of rare initiation and raises to some incredible spiritual state, try something else

Sushmitha, you may also check out Tīvra's teaching on Shiva's Pañcadaśi mantra and the way japa is done in Ajña. Also i want to add words of my Teacher that if you obtain Devi's anugraham, Shiva will reveal Himself as a gentle child for you. If you feel love to Shiva, you are destined to feel your way out of all mentioned, good luck to you. Better choose one way of practice, only thus you may gain siddhi - otherwise all these will be just prayers, it's very good but you can do more

Namaste Sushmita ji, while it might be true that Shiva is a bit difficult to reach, pure devotion and love for the deity pervades everything. I'm also a newbie here, but from what I've learned, it's totally valid to do both their sadhanas together; moreover, they're complementary to each other. Whichever you like the most, whatever your mind feels like, worship them at that time. Also, meditate on Shiva and Shakti together; they are indifferent. Whomever you worship, the other one becomes happier. Just worship with devotion, and they themselves will tell you and take you there.
