“There is no ‘first’ in the Universe.  Everything that has ever been created is a spontaneous occurrence.  Humans create consciousness as a concept, and consciousness creates humans through our human minds.  They are two sides of the same coin.  It’s like asking, “what came first, the chicken or the egg?  Perhaps the egg was just a chicken’s way of making more chickens, or perhaps the chicken was just the egg’s way of making more eggs!  The Universe exists through simultaneity.”
