It is the vehicle for making projection happen. Without it, you are just meditating/altering your state of consciousness. See, a lot of people do get tied up in the sensations and cues, treating them as stages before they give self permission to move on to the next stage. This is where i see many people get stuck. You have to scrap that way of linear thinking and constant check and analysis. Instead, Put your intention first, know where you are going, know why you want to project, know what your goal is before hand.
Then put your focus into expanding your consciousness out, you do this by sensing through your "minds eye" also known as your 3rd eye/ 6th chakra. These are all key words/terms to look up incase you are unsure or want more info in how to practise using your 3rd eye. By all means if sensations do begin to happen as you progress take it as a good sign, but know that these cues and sensations do not need to be happening for projection to happen. By using the SP method before your conscious mind knows what it is to project, you may be focusing too much on the physical level and body and not enough on your consciousness (which is what projects with an intention set up). You do not need to be in a SP state to project either.
