Just sitting. The Zen practice the Soto school made the whole path.
The defining practice of the Zen tradition — sitting silently in upright posture, without object, without goal. Dogen's shikantaza: 'just sitting,' nothing added.
The meditation school that strips Mahayana to its experiential core: a special transmission outside the scriptures, not founded on words and letters; pointing directly at the human mind, seeing into one's own nature, attaining buddhahood.
