1) Lord Shiva’s mantra for health and wealth:

 कर्पूरगौरं करुणावतारं संसारसारम् भुजगेन्द्रहारम् ।सदावसन्तं हृदयारविन्दे भवं भवानीसहितं नमामि ॥

Karpur Gauram Karunavataram, Sansara Saram Bhujagendra Haram।

 Sada Vasantam Hridayaaravinde, Bhavam Bhavani Sahitam Namami॥

Meaning: The one who is fair in complexion like camphor, who is the embodiment of compassion, who is the essence of the world, who wears the necklace of snakes around his neck, that Lord Shiva may always reside in my heart along with Maa Bhavani and I salute them.

Lord Shiva is a resident of the crematorium. He wears ashes on his body; hence, his form is considered terrible to look at. When he was getting married to Maa Parvati, he arrived in a blissful, pleasant, and appealing form. In this praise of Lord Shiva, his beautiful and divine form has been described. It is believed that Lord Vishnu himself had sung this praise at the time of his marriage with divine mother Parvati. Lord Shiva is the Lord of all gods; the life and death of the entire world are under the control of Lord Shiva. Therefore, after the puja, Lord Shiva is praised with this mantra.

2) Mahamrityunjay Mantra for increasing longevity:

 ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्। उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात्

 Om Trayambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushtiwardham।

 Urwarukmivbandhanaan Mrityor Mukshiya Maamritat.॥

 Meaning: We worship Lord Shiva, who has three eyes, who is fragrant and nourishes us. Just as the fruit is freed from the bondage of the branch, let us also be freed from death and impermanence.

This powerful mantra is known as the Maha-Mrityunjay Mantra. When chanted daily with a Rudraksha rosary, it can dispel the fear of untimely death. Chanting it 1100 times helps rid one of fear, while 11000 chants can help overcome diseases. For blessings of offspring, progress, and protection from untimely death, chanting 1.25 lakh mantras is advised. With sincere devotion and faith in the practice, seekers may find their desired outcomes manifesting.

3) Lord Shiv Gayatri mantra for Spiritual Awakening:

ॐ तत्पुरुषाय विद्महे महादेवाय धीमहि तन्नो रुद्रः प्रचोदयात॥

Om Tatpurushaya Vidmahe Mahadevaya Dhimahi Tanno Rudrah Prachodayat॥

 Meaning: Om, May I focus all my attention on the omnipresent great Lord Mahadev Lord Shiva. My Lord, give me the storehouse of knowledge and fill my heart with the light of Rudra; we take refuge in you.
