Is there a sutra which provides more info on the subject above?
As per wikipedia, some monks should have such abilities as those found in Wikipedia page "Miracles of Gautama Buddha ":
> Superparanormal powers the historic Buddha was said to have possessed
> and exercised include the six higher knowledges (*abhiññā*): psychic
> abilities (*iddhi-vidhā)*, clairaudience (*dibba-sota*), telepathy
> (*ceto-pariya*), recollection of one's own past lives
> (*pubbe-nivāsanussati*), seeing the past lives and rebirths of others
> (*dibba-cakkhu*), and the extinction of mental intoxicants
> (*āsavakkhaya*). Miracles found in Mahayana sutras generally play a more
> direct role in illustrating certain doctrines than miracles found in
> non-Mahayana Buddhist texts.
