====================================
The word Intuition is from the Latin Intueri. Roughly translated it means ‘to look inside’ or ‘to contemplate’. Intuition can be cultivated by building an awareness of how your microcosmic inner self is a small but perfectly formed representation of the macrocosm outside. This is how you are connected to all things, in a sense you are all things. The felt awareness of this ultimate Truth is Satori.  You don't just think it, you feel that it is true, know it at a deep level. 
You no longer identify with the world of form as your primary reality. You identify instead with the source of Intuition, your Highest Self. This is the aspect of you that exists beyond the world of form. You can continue to recognise the world of form as a relative truth so that you are able to function within it and be effective, but it is no longer your primary reality. 
Intuition is the bridge between the world of form and the higher reality that lies beyond it. It is how great artists and thinkers have accessed their best ideas. You too can become more creative by learning to listen to your own Intuition. 
You can start this minute by consciously imagining the world as an interconnected whole, rather than a big chaotic assembly of disconnected parts, with you separate from it all. Look for the connections that surely exist behind the appearance of separateness. Start doing this now, and practice it everyday. You will know it is working when you have an increasing experience of Synchronicity. 
Beyond cultivating a knowing certainty that everything is connected, a seeker after Satori can make progress towards their goal by cultivating regular meditation practice. The more time you spend meditating, the more progress you will make. How to do this is explained in detail in a later chapter.
