I want to know the answer to the following question:
When did Mahayana sutras start to influence the behavior of mainstream buddhists in India?
All the background I'm provided with is that "" These texts were apparently not universally accepted among Indian Buddhists when they appeared; the pejorative label Hinayana was applied by Mahayana supporters to those who rejected the Mahayana sutras.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
