In Bible Jesus tells the story to his disciples In Matthew 7:24-27 Jesus says the following:
"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it."
Meaning:
All those who listen to my words and do something about them are like a wise man who builds his house on a rock. The man laid a strong foundation by digging deep into the earth. Then he worked carefully and slowly making sure the building was strong and secure on the rock. And then the rains and floods came and the wind blew hard and beat against the house. But the house did not fall because it was built on a strong foundation.
But the person who hears my words and does nothing with them is like a stupid or foolish man who built his house on the sand. This man did not build a strong deep foundation and built his house very quickly. His tall house was built fast and he moved in feeling safe. Soon the rains and floods came and the wind blew beating against the house. The tall house without a strong foundation just couldn't stand up to the flooding and winds and it cracked and the whole house collapsed."
I am comparing this two builders as Radhika and Vishakha..
Radh and Vish were both raised in the same family. But Radh listened to the words of her parents and became wise where as Vish did not listen and ultimately became fool.
Radhika married Dev first time was under the pretense of Vish. She did not claim her rights but suffered and went through agony and tortured but waited until she could build her house on the foundation of love and honor and devotion. She has so deep foundation of this house that many rains?. many floods? or many storm will not shake her foundation of love and trust and devotion. The cement of her house is the love she shares with her husband. The bricks of her house is her devotion.. her respect and honor for her beloved husband and her family?.. her sacrifices for her family?
Where as Vishakha..
The first time she built her house it was on the foundation of lies and greed and money.. It just fell apart by one lure of the cinema world and her selfish desire and dreams
The second time she is trying to build her house is on the foundation of greed and jealousy and viciousness. And on top of that she has cement of hatred and envy. She does not have solid bricks just insults dishonor and false claims
The rain and the flood and the storm came on both the houses.. but one stood and the other fell.
So when Radh is going to get under that attack she will stand firm and her foundation will never shake because they are the solid foundation.
Where as when Vish will get under attack her house will fell like pack of cards by the first sign of storm as it has no true foundation..
