in your dream have you ever tried to have another dream and if so how did that turn out?
Are you asking if it's possible to have a dream within a dream?
Yes, and I have never tried it. How would you begin?
no, i know that is possible as i had one, not lucid though. the dream i had i woke up 3 times befor knowing the were all dreams
im asking if anyone has forced themself into another dream while in a dream?
Ohhh. That's called a False Awakening, A.K.A FA (in dreamview terms). It's not so much as putting yourself into another dream, as it is just transporting yourself somewhere else, be it by flying, teleporting, or simply visualizing the area around you. While you are lucid, the world around is basically your sandbox, and you are God. I guess you could go and lie down in a bed, and try to dream again, if you honestly wanted to, but I don't know if you would re-awaken into the original dream.
thats what i mean, it would be interesting to know what would happen, if anything. i know it might not be the most entertaining but what if something really cool happened like the dream was 50x more clearer...... sort of like going deaper into your mind!
@NonConformist: A false awakening is when you think you have woken up from a dream when you actaully are still dreaming.

@gunsdontwork: Inception style dreaming is usually not characteristic of lucid dreams. I've heard of people trying to fall asleep to go to different layers in their dreams, only to enter a dreamless sleep or another dream entirely. Dreams will only have different layers if your mind wants to create them, there arn't stable constant layers in LDs like inception. Out of body experiences have layers I've been told.
If you try to "fall asleep and enter another dream within that dream", you'll just end up in a new location or in your bed (still dreaming) that only makes it seem like you've went down a level. I haven't actually tried lying down and sleeping in a lucid, but I figure it might destabilize the dream because you're closing your eyes and trying to relax, letting go of all sensations around you.
Yes guys its possible, its also possible to be lucid etc etc.
PercyLucid has done it. I cant give you the link coz I cant find it.
But he WILD's, then WILD's again in the dream, and then again, and again.
Each time he wakes up in the previous one. If your really interested you could search through his DJ, or search the forum, you may find the link somewhere.
I've knowingly done this 3 times, and it's pretty much exactly like Puffin describes.
You'll just end up in a new dream.
When you wake up from such a dream, it seems likely to end up in your previous dream, at least it happened to me 2 out of 3 times.
It's nothing like in Inception though. You don't go "deeper" or anything like that.
He might have WILDed but he didn't go deeper in his subconscious. And waking up after each one isn't necessary because they are not separate dreams.Quote:

WILDing in non-lucids almost always works.
However, yes, in reality the dream is just one dream. It is not like you lie on the bed and fall asleep and your sleeping body is still in the first level, since the first level is already gone. The Inception thing is just ridiculous. It seems to believe that the dream world is something existing independently from people, i.e. things can happen in the world with nobody observing it.
Never said he went deeper into his subconscious....
Are you sure that they werent seperate dreams?
Thats what he described it as.... ?
Are you sure? How do you know that a dream is just one dream? How do you know that they aren't actually layers?Quote:

The point I am trying to get across is that when you go to sleep in a dream, it is not that your brain actually emulates a brain, VirtualBox style, going to sleep and then actually emulates all of the REM going on in the "first level". The "first level" just disappears and you go into another dream world.
