PURPORT
In this verse Nārada Muni hints at the glories of Vasudeva and Devakī, the parents of Krishna and Balarāma, by the words yaśasā pūritam jagat, "the whole world is now filled with your glories." In other words, although Vasudeva inquired from Nārada about spiritual advancement, Nārada here states, "You are already completely glorious due to your extraordinary devotion to the Supreme Personality of Godhead."
