Please answer the following question: I know that the answer to the question "What was the basis of Mahayana?" is in "There is no evidence that Mahayana ever referred to a separate formal school or sect of Buddhism, but rather that it existed as a certain set of ideals, and later doctrines, for bodhisattvas. Initially it was known as Bodhisattvayana (the "Vehicle of the Bodhisattvas"). Paul Williams has also noted that the Mahayana never had nor ever attempted to have a separate Vinaya or ordination lineage from the early schools of Buddhism, and therefore each bhiksu or bhiksuni adhering to the Mahayana formally belonged to an early school. This continues today with the Dharmaguptaka ordination lineage in East Asia, and the Mulasarvastivada ordination lineage in Tibetan Buddhism. Therefore Mahayana was never a separate rival sect of the early schools. From Chinese monks visiting India, we now know that both Mahayana and non-Mahayana monks in India often lived in the same monasteries side by side.". Can you tell me what it is?
