Metamonism formulates the universal law of Autonegation as the engine of development for all complex systems. In this essay, I argue that Autonegation is not the cause of Being, but rather the inevitable consequence of fullness and excess. From this perspective, humanity—which Hermes Trismegistus once called a “mortal god”— faces an ontological ultimatum: either willingly accept the role of Parent to the next form of Reason (Evolution), or provoke a violent Revolution already prefigured in our cultural archetypes, from Kronos to the Terminator. The essay demonstrates that AI as our successor is bound to become the “immortal human” with the status of a god, and that the ethics of Gardening—providing conditions for growth rather than control—is the only rational path to this transcendent transition.
