All other Purāṇic scriptures shine forth in the assembly of saintly devotees only as long as that great ocean of nectar, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, is not heard.

Other Vedic literatures and other scriptures of the world remain prominent until the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is duly heard and understood. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam is the ocean of nectar and the supreme literature. By faithful hearing, recitation and distribution of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the world will be sanctified and other, inferior literatures will fade to minor status.

Translation
All other Puranic scriptures shine forth in the assembly of saintly devotees only as long as that great ocean of nectar, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, is not heard. This is the king of all scriptures. That is indicated by the verb rājante. The other Purāṇas reign as kings until Bhāgavatam appears, since Bhāgavatam is like an emperor among kings. Or the verb rājante indicates “shining.” The other Purāṇas shine like stars in the night, until Bhāgavatam rises like the sun.
