There is more to learn in the destruction of lies, than the creation of lies, yet there is more to learn in the creation of beauty, than the destruction of beauty.

If you speak of "things" of the physical then it depends on the purpose of the lesson. If it is to learn of the chemical makeup of a thing, then it's destruction will determine the light spectrum of the chemicals released, thereby allowing us to learn of it's chemical matrix. If it is to learn of it's life cycle then to create the thing from it's natural beginning state will teach us that. The equality of both methods, destruction and creation or not determined by the results obtained and the purpose of examination.
From a spiritual perspective and a buddhist view of such, Buddhists consider the destruction of illusion rather than the creation of such as vital in both spiritual as well as mind development. Whereas the creation of harmony both spiritual and of mind also vital. In both cases, destruction of one creates the other, that is destruction of illusion creates harmony. Therefore in this case they of equal import.
Peace from a Buddhist....

I had to let go of my own [mind made] creations before I could know the truth. I had to be willing to walk threw mans creation of hell in order to know truth. Truth is not a creation. ~ : ) Thought you would like that. Although truth allows for creation. When the clouds pass, the sun shines, but sometimes the rain is needed. I walked 10 miles to get where I am. Ha, ha, ha.........Very good question!

Creation in a sense is a gift given to us. When we as the recipient of that gift abuse, misuse that gift to the point that we temporary lose it, ' break ' it . . . By those experiences we discover the authentic appreciation of that ' lost ' or ' taken away ' gift . . . We feel the sense of loss and desire that ' gift / creation back again . . . Thus our souls are strengthened and re-awakened to the thought of how much we really DID appreciate that gift. Our free will of thought stirs to thoughts of . . . What am I going to do to get that gift back...How am I going to appreciate, value, cherish and better take care of that gift if I'm so privileged to get that gift back again ?
That creation / gift of a healthy Earth environment, care for our fellow man, value of personal Love felt from one close to your heart, etc.
Presented with the gift of any noted creation. . . then we destroy that gift...we reflect to all and the One our sorrow and dismay . . . it is ' read ' from our hearts how much we desire that gift / creation back . . . the One ' reads ' the heart and senses sincerity of Truth. . . that gift / creation is gifted to us again...the Brightness grows.

If you stop the creation that created by your mind you no need to learn anything.

Since we have limited ability to create from scratch, we learn from destruction and reverse engineering in order to create something a tenth as good (and I'm being generous).
Everything that mankind created in this world cannot match nature. We detsroyed nature to replicate it poorly.

Creation requires much work whereas destruction hardly requires any.

This is a destruction before the end of the world. Read it.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

creation and destruction are two sides of the same coin...... one cannot exist without the other..... secondly one cannot be totally understood without understanding the other....... the world is living on half knowledge..... they see only one part of duality..... and stick to it........ to create..... something has to be destroyed....... to create a wooden chair..... a tree has to die.... you are not creating anything new..... simply changing form of what is available on this earth.......
