Philosophically, The Hidden Book emphasizes Mencius' theory of sex, arguing that "everything in heaven and earth can be truly seen in my nature, and everything in heaven and earth can be truly compatible with sex". It believes that this "sex" is benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom, and it is "human heart." However, the main content of Hidden Book is the criticism of feudal autocratic system and autocratic monarch, which has a preliminary democratic enlightenment thought.

The book puts forward the arguments that "the son of heaven dominates the world" and "the son of heaven is supreme, and everyone is a great god", revealing that under the feudal system since the Qin Dynasty in 2000, it seems that generals killed people, soldiers killed people and officials killed people. In fact, it was the emperor who killed people and advocated punishing the autocratic monarch. This book reveals the social inequality under the feudal system.
