The nine beej mantras, one for each graha
One seed mantra for each of the nine planets, with the day it is begun on and the number of recitations the texts give.
A beej (seed) mantra is the shortest form of a planet's prayer. It is begun on the planet's own weekday, recited 108 times a day on a mala, and carried to the total the texts give.

Which one to recite
The one for the planet whose period you are running, or the planet that is weak in your chart — not all nine. A mantra costs nothing, which is exactly why it is the first remedy the texts give and the last thing anyone tries to sell you.
