Aims and Scope
The scope of TAIJA - Tatwachintanam International Journal of Ayurveda reflects its integrative and visionary mission. We invite contributions from core Ayurvedic surgical disciplines—Shalyatantra, Shalakyatantra, and Prasuti Tantra—as well as foundational subjects like Samhita Siddhanta and Shareera (Rachana and Kriya), which form the backbone of Ayurvedic knowledge.
Beyond classical scholarship, we emphasize novel research, clinical innovation, experimental findings, case studies, and interdisciplinary collaborations that expand the evidence base and real-world application of Ayurvedic surgical science.
