Purport
Śrī Uddhava here inquires about the spiritual opulences of the Lord, which consist primarily of His viṣṇu-tattva expansions such as Vāsudeva, Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna and Aniruddha. By worshiping different plenary expansions of the Lord one achieves particular perfections, and Śrī Uddhava wants to know about this.

Translation
Please tell me the various forms in which the greatest sages worship you with devotion and attain perfection.
Uddhava asks about the Lord’s vibhūtis in order to carry out worship of the Lord more effectively than worshipping everywhere. By this, the great sags attain perfection.
