Why Is Linji Yixuan Influential?

According to Wikipedia, Linji Yixuan was the founder of the Linji school of Chán Buddhism during Tang dynasty China. Línjì yǔlù Information on Linji is based on the Línjì yǔlù , the Record of Linji. The standard form of these sayings was not completed until two hundred fifty years after Linji's death, and likely reflects the teaching of Chán in the Linji school at the beginning of the Song dynasty rather than that of Linji in particular.
