Adam, in concept, as a general soul, includes all the others.

However, just as a limb feels it's own wound more acutely than the rest of the body feels it, so too friends or family that have a connected spiritual source affect each other more deeply in through their progress and flaws.

Similarly, a leader, compared to the head, feels and is affected by their community on a deeper level, just as the head is more aware of the pains of one of the limbs than the other limbs are.
