  • Most texts describe the effect of chanting the Shodashi Vidya. Very few texts describe the same for Panchadashi.

  • In this answer u will find the name of some scriptures that discuss mantroddhara for Shodashi. So, it depends on whether one can find texts like Gyanarnava Tantra, Sri Krama, Rudra Yamala etc online or not.

As shown in this answer few such scriptures are Rudra Yamala, Siddha Yamala, Gyanarnava Tantram, Brahma Yamala etc.

If you can buy/access the books Nitoytsava or Brihat Tantrasara, then also you will get to know what the Mantra actually is and how several of it's variations are formed by the Samputana method.

Regarding the greatness of the Mantra, it is already described in details in my other answer linked above.
