Hare Krsna Prabhuji,
PAMHO.
Material world is created from the external energy of the lord. The energy is permanent, the creation of this external energy is temporary. Like all the things created by man is temporary - gadgets, buildings, structures, clothes, etc.
The lord has 3 energies - internal, external and marginal. All 3 are permanent. The material world is manifested when the lord glances over the external energy and impregnates it. If the energy itself was impermanent, where would the lord glance to create?
I hope I have been able to explain. Pls ask if there are doubts.
Haribol,
Your servant,

When little Kid wants to play, sits down in the sand to make some temporary forms and shapes, but because the kid has mistic powers, he himself enters into material sand as parts and particles to make all forms live, making all his playground more interesting.
All his mistic powers make all his playground so amazing that his personal eternal particles forget who they really are, by identifying with the sand. Anyway, without puting his mistic energy particles in the illusion, his creation woud not be interesting for him to play at all.
Later, because the Kid want to rest a bit from playing, he destroyes all his creation and withdraw his mistic presence from the sand, but the sand remains for next creation after waking up from his rest.
As we can see here, The Kid is not the same as his temporary creation , neither he is the sand itself.
The sand is his eternal material for playing, thats why its not destroyed when creation is.
