In this idiom the sleeping dogs are the inactive and lazy people. We are not fit for the survival unless we are active and energetic. So if give a chance to those people who are lazy in a company or political manifesto. There will be a mere destruction in the whole system. Because of their laziness they will not act in the positive way; they will not be capable of maintaining the system. So they must be given the post which will be best suited for their ability.

I agree with the points rose by you but instead of blaming the sleeping dogs we could also try and understand their point of view. It is also possible that for them we be the sleeping dogs. So we should maintain gap with them but this gap could be bridged with cooperation and sharp mind.

Yes it is right to motivate the people who don't show there interest in all field. But we can only give them idea what to do and what not do. It is not in our hand that to make them active. It is their responsibility to be in action. The people who are already habituated to spent time in sleep and lazy, it is very dificult for them to escape from their situation. It is only depend upon the strong will power of a person to show the right path.

According to me,
This statement "let sleeping dogs lie" means here sleeping dogs refers to those peoples who are inactive and lazy, who don't want to do any work. They wants to get more and more output in less input. But I think those people needs to motivation and opportunities. Less opportunities makes people inactive and leads to discouragement. So we should encourage those peoples and provides opportunities to those people it can change their entire life.

I agree with Mr Karen that we must not disturb an inactive problem creator, who will unnecessarily consume our precious time. However it is much easy to eliminate a problem creator while he is inactive. Once you solve this puzzle you will need not to worry about him anymore. Otherwise he will keep on bothering us and one day he may bite us as well. If you are sure you can over can that problem creator, then I suggest you to go ahead and execute and if you are are not capable of doing that, then friends let the sleeping dog lie.

Yeah!, I agree with pravin even sleeping dogs have some hidden talen but they use their intelligence to doing abuse and harmful things. It is not safe to try to stop to do so.
Because sometimes we have to sacrifice our time and even our valuable life for them. So, its not better to try change them completely.

I agree with all above statements and opinions. People who are inactive are also in two types, that is some inactive people are always in their own world, while other few ones have destructive mind also. People who are inactive or lazy, they also have strengths but it depends on each individuals that how they can grasp it and use it. So only I want to say that do not let ourselves and others in any certain difficult situations, try to keep our own mind calm.
