a dream inside a dream (Questions)

[wow]

I have questions that I would like to ask and I figured maybe this forum is the right place. It's either my questions will be taken seriously or ignored completely. I have no idea if someone asked this before, but its worth asking here. I'm not one of those who could control their focus or else I would do it myself.

1: What happens if you go to sleep, start dreaming, then in that dream you see yourself go to sleep, and then you start dreaming? What happens if you realize that you are dreaming two dreams?

2: What happens if you go deeper, like you go to sleep, start dreaming , then go to sleep in that dream and start dreaming, and so on? Maybe the deeper you go the higher dimension you go?

It is somehow hard to remember you are dreaming inside a dream as it happened to me yesterday. I went to sleep, I was dreaming and in that dream I went to sleep and I saw myself dreaming, but I was aware that I was dreaming the second dream.  When I tried to open my eyes to get liquid dreams as usual, instantly I had bad dreams. I wasn't aware I was dreaming inside a dream until I woke up in the mooring realizing I was only trying to wake up from the second dream. I'm just curious what would have happened to me if I realized I was dreaming two dreams. By the way when I entered the second dream and became aware I was dreaming, I was able to fly with my will, but it didn't look like liquid dream, it looked like a normal dream.

I'm only throwing questions out there for discussion and sharing opinions, nothing should be taken as the final answer.

I see this question quite often actually.
In my opinion it's a dream awareness experience regardless of how many layers there are to it.
The point is that you're in the non-physical and you don't know it.

You could potentially have your focus spread between more than one 'place', sure.  If you become aware that you're dreaming, then you're now having a Lucid Awareness Experience, regardless of anything else.

2: What happens if you go deeper, like you go to sleep, start dreaming , then go to sleep in that dream and start dreaming, and so on? Maybe the deeper you go the higher dimension you go?

I personally don't think so.
As I mentioned above, it's all just a dream awareness experience, regardless of the number of layers.

That's actually what a "false awakening" is.  It's you "waking up" inside a dream and thinking it's real.

I have had false awakening lately more than anything else, and I absolutely hate them. I will try to test this theory on my own one day, but thank you for the quick feedback and for moving the thread to the right section.

I got a dream image of this once. The really deep dreams are hard to catch. Imagine a bunch of cameras lined up, one camera taking a picture of the view screen on the one before it. In order to catch the deepest dreams all of the flashes have to go off in the right order, at the right time. Dreams are like onions. The really deep ones our waking self has trouble finding symbols for.

I've had this happen to me before. Once I was walking through a park sat dawn under a tree and went to sleep only to start dreaming!! I had a false awakening and then realized I was still dreaming and then just woke up!! It was strange at that.

Yep, had a false awakening last night. Whilst in my dream I said to myself "remember when you wake up to write this dream in your dream journal". Then 'woke up' only to find that I was still dreaming. Puzzled me at first, fully aware I was still dreaming whilst dreaming. When I did actually wake up I did write it down in my journal. Now for me to convert into being more aware and 'do something' in my dream - gain control

Take care

I once fell asleep in a regular dream and then had a lucid dream inside of a regular, non-lucid dream.
