Pāsādakampana Sutta

The Theragāthā Commentary (ThagA.ii.184) says that the incident of Moggallāna rocking the Migāramātupāsāda with his thumb, at the command of the Buddha, in order to frighten some novices who indulged in worldly talk — is recounted in the Pāsādakampana Sutta.¹

This incident is recounted in the Moggallāna Sutta of the Saṃyuttanikāya (S.v.269 f).

It is also related in the Suttanipāta Commentary (SNA.i.336 f), as an introduction to the Uṭṭhāna Sutta.

¹ The Moggallāna Sutta is the fourth discourse of the Pāsādakampana Vagga
