TRANSLATION
While all the Pracetās were executing religious rituals and sacrificial ceremonies and thus worshiping the Supreme Personality of Godhead for His satisfaction, the great sage Nārada described the transcendental qualities of Dhruva Mahārāja.
PURPORT
Nārada Muni is always glorifying the pastimes of the Lord. In this verse we see that he not only glorifies the Lord, but he also likes to glorify the devotees of the Lord. The great sage Nārada Muni's mission is to broadcast the devotional service of the Lord. For this purpose he has compiled the  Nārada-pañcarātra , a directory of devotional service, so that devotees can always take information about how to execute devotional service and thus engage twenty-four hours a day in performing sacrifices for the pleasure of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As stated in the  Bhagavad-gītā , the Lord has created four orders of social life, namely  brāhmaṇa ,  kṣatriya ,  vaiśya  and  śūdra . In the  Nārada-pañcarātra  it is very clearly described how each of the social orders can please the Supreme Lord. In the  Bhagavad-gītā  (Bg.18.45) it is stated,  sve sve karmaṇy abhirataḥ saṁsiddhiṁ labhate naraḥ : by executing one's prescribed duties one can please the Supreme Lord. In the  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam  also it is stated,  svanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam : the perfection of duty is to see that by discharging one's specific duties one satisfies the Supreme Personality of Godhead ( Bhāg.1.2.13 ). When the Pracetās were performing sacrifices according to this direction, Nārada Muni was satisfied to see these activities, and he also wanted to glorify Dhruva Mahārāja in that sacrificial arena.
