### [v1.c16.16](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c16.16)

When a Cakkavatti dies or leaves the world, the Cakkaratana disappears from the sight of men for seven days; it gives warning of a Cakkavatti’s impending death by slipping from its place some time before the event.⁴ When his successor has lived righteously for seven days, it reappears.⁵
