The expression “Time immemorial” is key to understanding spiritual truths regarding the living beings and God . From the eternal comes the eternal , one could say.
Radha Krishna pranaya
Radha Krishna were one they became two . These transcendental concepts have been written on and discussed by our acaryas. Srila Prabhupada himself, and Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and especially Srila Jiva Goswami of how to calculate the impossible that’s made possible..
Prabhupda..
“That means we all individual beings, we are individual constitutionally. God is the father or creator or whatever, or the source of all life, or source of our existence. Whatever you like, you can say. So we have…, we have been created in that way. Eko bahu syāma. God has become many. This is also version of the Vedas that many, all these many, we are also god. Just like the fire diffuses its sparks. The sparks coming out of the fire, it is the…, they are also part and parcel of the fire. Similarly we, we are all parts and parcels of the Supreme.
Now, He wanted to become many. He wanted to become many, so He has become many, and we are that many. So we are not different from God. We are not different from God, but because He wanted to become many, so we have become many. Now, thing is, when God wanted to become many, there must be some purpose behind this. Otherwise, why did He like to become many? He was one, one without second. That’s all right. But why did He become many? So that is a question, one must like to put, that “Why God became many?”
So that is, that answer is that because God is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha [Bs 5.1],
[Kṛṣṇa who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.]
He’s all-pleasure—therefore, without many, there is no pleasure. Just like here I sit down the whole day alone, but I become more active and more pleasing when you come. Whenever we want to enjoy some pleasure, pleasure is not enjoyed alone. Pleasure is enjoyed with many. Now God is by nature… He’s ānandamayo ‘bhyāsāt [Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12].”
Love and attraction drives the Jiva ,nothing else , it is inherently situated in the soul, and we either love Krishna directly, the correct personality to repose love , or if due to love being voluntary, we have not yet found our spontaneous attraction for Krishna . In that case , we became attracted to Krishna in a different way , His external energies , until such time that we learn of the origins of everything , namely, the all attractive Krishna, sometimes, even in this life you have to learn to love , and give up independence , non appreciation or envy
The over emphasis of oneness or the over emphasis of difference is incorrect tattva ..Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada has discussed that point . Thus Mahāprabhu has rounded everything of with the inconceivably and simultaneously oneness and difference between the jiva and Divinity.
And time immemorial is key to understand, we cannot calculate a time when the one becomes many , but from the eternal comes the eternal .
