On the occasion of 50 years of BAPS in North America (1974-2024), we present a six-episode documentary highlighting how the spiritual organization has grown over the past 50 years from a small mandir in a basement in Flushing, NY to over 117 mandirs in USA and Canada. Each episode is presented in two parts.
