The Beginning The Truth Center of Divine Awareness (TCODA) was founded to meet the needs of the founding members and the community at large, in May of 1994. It was incorporated under the Not-for-Profit Corporation Laws of New York State.We are locate at 325 Ralph Avenue Brooklyn New York.

In addition to our weekly services, TCODA offers to its congregation and the community, services in the performance of Memorialls, Funerals, Weddings, Christenings, Home Blessings, Thanks-giving, and Spiritual Counseling.

Our teachings are from a soul conscious level. We believe that man's true identity is that of a Soul. We believe that the soul always existed, but to play its role, it must put on a human form. We teach that the soul has three faculties, the Mind which creates the thoughts, the intellect which judges, reasons or decides, and the memory which stores, We believe and teach that the soul is influenced by its actions. The soul is eternal, it cannot die, it is also immortal it cannot be destroyed.

We believe that God is one and that he is the Father of all souls which includes the prophets. We believe and teach that God too is a soul, however Supreme in nature. God does not come in the cycle of birth and death. He does not have a body of his own. We are indeed created in his image and likeness, but our roles are different. His role is to remind us of who we are and who he is; to uplift the fallen souls by giving them knowledge of themselves. The role of the God is to purify the impure world and take us back home from whence we came. Soul came from God and none can go back to the God but the soul. The body belongs to the five elements. It remains with us on this lower or physical plane.

We believe and teach there is indeed a time for every thing. There was a time when the divine masters played their role and this is the time when the Father himself must come to play His role, of transforming his children.

To hold Seminars where necessary on an ongoing basis to provide training for those who require assistance in enabling them to transform their lives, and how they can be of service to the world.

To tell all of human kind that their true identity is that of a Soul. That the religious masters had their roles to play, however they too are sons of the One God. God's role cannot be played by any.

Thou shalt love the Lord Thy God with all thy heart with Mind, Body, and Soul ,and thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Mark 12:30-31

Hosea in his Writings, says “because of the lack of .Knowledge God’s people are perishing”
Which Knowledge is he referring to? The knowledge of Self and God. Should someone ask who are you? .am positive that you would identify yourself with your physical body. i.e your status, your nationality, your colour.But is that who you really are.
In Genesis, we read that God breathe, His breath and man became a living Soul.
This is truly who we are. We are souls clothed in physical bodies.
a soul is not visible.The Soul is not physical, The Soul is metaphysical, beyond that which is physical. The Soul uses the body to play it’s role. I the Soul am a thinking, analysing,memorizing being, I have a Mind which creates, I have a Intellect, which analyze and a memory which stores. The intellect and Mind are not the body, they are subtle faculties of the soul.
The body belongs to I the Soul.
No one can see the Soul with the physical eyes. Physical brothers and sisters can see each other. No one can see the Soul with the physical eyes.
I the Soul however sees the body. The body does not see the soul. Similarly the Father cannot be seen, he has to be realized. All of us Souls are brothers. When we enter a body it is said we are brothers and sisters. But all souls are actually brothers.
The Father of us Souls is the Supreme Soul. He cannot be seen with the physical eyes. The Father’s role is to make the old worlld new. To create the Garden of Eden of the New World. This old world has to be destroyed. It is therefore necessary for all mankind to be given this knowledge
