This work focuses on the principles of governance, ethics, and the nature of human relationships.

The content of "慎子" presents a series of reflections and discussions around these themes, emphasizing the importance of moral character in leadership and the necessity for rulers to use laws and ethics effectively to govern. Dao Shen articulates the idea that a wise ruler should be aware of their responsibilities and must balance the interests of the state and its people. The text elaborates on various aspects of governance, such as the treatment of subjects, the establishment of laws, and the significance of personal virtue, ultimately arguing for a harmonious society where the ruler's character positively influences the populace.
