Who was first?

It says in Bhagavatam that Krishna was the first being in the universe (material or spiritual).  Then he split into 2 (radha and krishna)

In the Chaitanya charitamria it says Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is Radha-Krishna combined.

So from the above was the first being actually Chaitanya Mahaprabhu?

    Hare Krsna Prabhuji,

    PAMHO.

    If you read Chiatanya Caritamrta, it is mentioend in Adi Lila - the reasons for the appearance of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. In that, it is mentioned that one of the reasons was Krsna wanted to taste what RadhaRani gets by being in separation from Him and by being in love with Him. Thats why Lord Chaitanya appeared in the mood of Radharani. 

    This means that unless Radharani is there, how Krsna will think like that and want to taste what She is tasting?

    I hope I have been able to explain.

    Haribol,

    Your servant,

    Radha Rasamayi DD
