<b><i>Philosophy Poda Na Lima for Victims of Bullying: A Literature Review</i></b>

This study aims to explore the role of the Poda Na Lima philosophy in addressing bullying and supporting the recovery of bullying victims in the Mandailing Angkola community, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Poda Na Lima, which consists of five principles of cleanliness of the heart, body, clothes, home, and environment, is a traditional philosophy that is deeply rooted in Mandailing Angkola culture. This research uses a literature study approach to examine how the principles of Poda Na Lima can be applied in character education and anti-bullying programs in schools and communities. Based on a review of previous studies, Poda Na Lima has been shown to increase emotional resilience, improve self-esteem, and create social harmony, which is highly relevant to address the effects of bullying, such as anxiety, depression, and social isolation. The results show that by emphasizing inner hygiene and self-respect, this philosophy can help victims of bullying in the process of emotional and social healing. In addition, the application of Poda Na Lima in educational and community settings can strengthen social support, reduce stigma, and improve relationships between individuals. This research proposes that Poda Na Lima be further integrated in educational curricula and community programs to create a more supportive environment and reduce bullying behavior in the future.
