How to recite Lalitaa Sahastra Naam
The Shree Lalitaa Sahastra Naamam can be chanted in two different ways: in Stotra form or in Mantra form.
In Stotra form, all 1,000 Naam are separated into Stotra of a few Naam each and recited in this way.
In Mantra form, each Naam is said individually, preceded by "Om" and followed by "Namah". When chanted in Mantra form, the endings of each Naam are generally changed to "e" or "yai". Mantra form is commonly used to recite Lalitaa Sahastra Naam during Archanaa.
Both ways, however, are equally effective.

It does not matter if one cannot complete it, because each Naam by itself is a powerful weapon against many sorts of day-to-day problems and provide all sorts of benefits.

It is a remedy for every mundane problem.
