The Vamana Purana has 1 million couplets divided into 95 chapters. The chapters are divided into two sections – the “purva” or earlier section and the “uttara” or later section. Vamana, the Dwarf, who was the fifth incarnation of Vishnu, originally narrated the Vamana Purana. It was narrated to the Demon king Bali after Vishnu vanquished him. Later Sage Pulastya narrated the Purana to Narada.
