Did I come to Rishikesh to drink tap water?

Bhakti Caru Swami: When we arrived in Rishikesh, one of the first things Prabhupada wanted was to drink some water. So somebody gave him some water from the tap and Prabhupada said, "Did I come to Rishikesh to drink tap water?" So I just ran down to the river and got some water from the Ganges, and Prabhupada was very pleased to drink that straight from the river.
