How to chant it
ॐ निराकुलायै नमः
oṃ nirākulāyai namaḥ
om nirakulayai namah
In the stotra the name is chanted as it stands, nirākulā, as part of Shloka 44. In the nāmāvalī, the form used for arcana(worship with an offering at each name), it is turned to the dative, the case of offering: “to her”. Then it is framed by oṃ before and namaḥ, “salutation”, after.
