A few corrections to the SlOka which is the first of the 8 in the rAjarAjESvarI ashTakam

Amba shAmbhavI candramauLIravalA aparNA umA pArvatI
kALI haimavatI shivA trinayanI kAtyAyanI bhairavI

thank you.

[bharatanatyamrasika]

i have a few questions regarding the first line which is repeated umpteen times.

Om grIm hrIm hrIm shrI mAdrE shiva priyAyE namO namah


i looked up and found that this is a beejakshara mantram - where one word denotes the mantram for a diety( beej or seed mantram)

and what i found is

aim is saraswati
krim is kali
shrim is lakshmi

hreem bhuvaneshwari
hrum/hum shiva
hleem bagalamukhi
treem tara
dum durga
kleem adi shakti

aim hreem sreem(bhuvaneshwari)

but nowhere do i see greem.

could someone explain this? i found three dances on devi and all say om greem, all of them seem to have many variations on the three words following om and preceeding
shrI mAdrE shiva priyAyE namO namah
