Mahabharata — Anushasana Parva, Shloka 109
Śiva-stavarāja: Upamanyu’s Preface and Initiation of the Śarva-Nāma Enumeration
Anuśāsana-parva 17
कैलासगिरिवासी च हिमवदूगिरिसंश्रय: । कूलहारी कूलकर्ता बहुविद्यो बहुप्रद:
kailāsagirivāsī ca himavadgiri-saṁśrayaḥ | kūlahārī kūlakartā bahuvidyo bahupradaḥ ||
风神伐由说道：“祂居于凯拉萨山（Kailāsa），亦依止于喜马拉雅诸岭（Himālaya）。祂以雄浑激流夺去河岸，又复为造岸者——开成大湖与蓄水之泽。祂通达多种学艺，且慷慨施与无量。”

Educational Q&A
The verse praises a figure through paradoxical natural imagery—able to destroy and to create (eroding banks yet also forming them)—and links true greatness with both wide learning (bahuvidya) and abundant generosity (bahuprada).
Vāyu-deva is describing and extolling a powerful being associated with sacred mountains (Kailāsa and the Himālaya), highlighting their might in shaping landscapes and their virtues of knowledge and giving.
