What happens when you take a nap in a LD?

That would be weird, having a dream within a lucid dream. And if that works, what happens if you take a nap in a dream within a dream within a dream? Surely somebody's done this. And lived to tell about it.

lol nice picture

Haha, nice pic. Well, once I was dreaming that I was dreaming that I was having a lucid dream, and then I awoke from that dream and DEILDed back into it. It was pretty weird. Then I woke up and started telling my parents about the cool lucids I had. And then I really woke up and realized that that was just a false awakening, and a false DEILD. Ah, well...dreams can be really crazy sometimes.

Anything could happen. It would be like stepping through a portal with an unknown destination. False awakening.. Change of scenery.. Real awakening.. There's no way to predict.

I did have a lucid nap, in a nap. It seems I had immense amounts of control.

I had 2 NONLUCID naps on several occasions. Like one time I was at a university lecture and it was really boring so I found a place behind the teachers desk where she couldn't see me and took a several minute nap. felt like a.... nap. After that I woke up and later on gained lucidity but that's another story. talk about "deep sleep"

Ive always wonder that like. like : Hey I have just dreamed that i have dreamed that I had dream where i dreamed

[Enlightenment]

A lucid dream nap, eh! Hmm, I wonder what would happen? I'm pretty sure it would be intensely weird and that you'd probably get sucked into another dimension or higher plane or something.

Ive always wonder that like. like : Hey I have just dreamed that i have dreamed that I had dream where i dreamed Can you imagine forcing yourself awake from a nightmare only to discover that you're still trapped in another nightmare trapped inside yet a 3rd nightmare? You'd have to wake yourself all the way up through 3 levels of dreamscapes. Not an easy chore for the average lucid dreamer. That's LaBerge stuff right there.

Some people actually 'go to sleep' during a LD to relax, to rest, to meditate, and some people 'WILD' to change the dream scene.

And lived to tell about it. The Art of Dreaming by Carlos Castaneda "4th Gate of Dreaming (Seeing): Arrived at when one is able to perceive the energetic essence of every dream item. Solved when one falls asleep in a dream, in the same position in which one has gone to sleep. Crossed when one wakes up in this reality, only not in the physical but in the energy body."

One time while having a non-lucid dream, I successfully completed a WILD (in the dream). After a few minutes of lucidity I "woke up" back to the non-lucid dream -- thereby losing lucidity. It was quite a bizarre experience.
