The Theragáthá Commentary (ThagA.ii.184) says that the incident of Moggallána rocking the Migáramátupásáda with his thumb, at the command of the Buddha, in order to frighten some novices who indulged in worldly talk -  is recounted in the Pásádákampana Sutta.

This incident is recounted in the Moggallána Sutta of the Samyutta Nikáya (S.v.269f).

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