It's actually not quite as rare as you might think. It's well known that you can have...for lack of a better explanation - circular logic within your dream. Hear me out for a minute: imagine yourself dreaming about yourself in your own room, just about to wake up. You're acting out your normal day, within your mind, completely subconsciously. It's not uncommon for a person who is undergoing this kind of dream to sleepwalk if they are extremely fatigued, or do actions and feel like they are awake, because they are acting how they typically would if they were awake.

Thinking about this phenomena within your logic, you'd be sleeping, while sleeping in your sub-conscious (or your dream), and dreaming a level below that. Quite something, eh?
