Linga Purana, Vol 2, Chapter 54 is completely dedicated to Tryambaka mantra alone.
It describes the procedure of worshipping Shivalinga with Tryambaka mantra.
त्रियंबकेण मंत्रेण
देवदेवं त्रियंबकम्। पूजयेद्वाणलिङ्ग वा स्वयंभूतेऽपि वा
पुनः॥१॥
Uttering the Tryambaka mantra, a devotee should worship Tryambaka in Bāņa-linga and Svayambhu-linga.

From the Viniyogah of the Mahamrityunjaya Stotra which is found in the Rudra Yamala Tantra: 4.Om Asya Sri Maha Mrithyunjaya Kavachasya , Sri Bhairava Rishi, Gayathri Chanda, Sri
Mrityunjaya rudro devathaa , Om bheejam, Jram Shakthi
, Sa keelakam Houm ithi thathwam, Chaturvarga phala sadhane pate viniyoga.
Om, for the armour of the great Mrithyunjaya , the sage is Bhairava ,
The meter is Gayathri , The God addressed is
Mrityunjaya Rudra
, the root is “Om”, the power is “jram”, The nail is Sa” and the principle is “Houm” and offering four types of fruits this is being chanted. Also, apart from being one of the most famous Vedic Mantras, it is also a Tantrik Mantra.
MahAmrityunja Mantra, MahAmrityunjaya Yantra
and it's
Prayoga are given in the Tantras.
From the Viniyogah of this Mantra we find (quoting from the TantrasAra's pp 502): atha tryambaka mantrah | tryambakam yajAmahe ...
mAmritAm || Vashishtohasya munih proktashchandahonushtupAhritah devatAsya samuddishtA tryambakah pArvatipatih ||
So, consort of Goddess PArvati or Lord Shiva is the Deity for the Mantra.
And, from the DhyAna Sloka for Tryambaka, we find: hastAbhyAm kalasadvayAmritaghatam
kailAsakAntam shivam svacchAmbhojagatam
navendumukutam devam trinetram bhaje ..
|| The Mrityunjaya Prayoga in the Tantras is also based on the Mrityunjaya Yantram and which is one of the Yantras for Lord Shiva.
So, "Mrityunjaya" or "Mahamrityunjaya" always refer to the three-eyed Lord Shiva/Rudra.

Okay I found a verse from the Shiva Purana where Shukracharya mentions it to Dadichi and says that the "three-eyed Lord" is Lord Shiva Himself: In my opinion, this Mrityunjaya mantra is the excellent of all.
Repeat the mantra regularly with your mind devoted to Shiva.
(Shiva Purana, Rudra Samhita, Chapter 38)

Mahamrityunjay Mantra is found in the Kashmir Shaivism's principle book called 'Sri Rudram'....
It is their daily Swadhyaya book....
have a look at the link.
Sri Rudram
You can find Sri Rudram on playstore.
It is said that a village where people read Sri Rudram, no disease can enter the village.
As a devotee of the late Baba Muktananda, we read Sri Rudram every sunday.
It is a very powerful scripture.
I would ask you to do the same to have the grace of Lord Shiva!! :)

The Mahamrityunjay Mantra is a famous verse found in the Rig Veda which glorifies a "three-eyed deity". According to Shaivites, the mantra refers to Lord Shiva whereas Vaishnavas believe it to be referring to Lord Narasimha. I have heard that some Puranas have references to this mantra. Can anybody provide me these alleged references? Do any of these Puranic references indicate the "three-eyed deity" it glorifies?
Is there any mention of the Mahamrityunjay Mantra in the Puranas?
