How do people like you remember to breath?
You have seeds
You need power
CRUSH THE SEEDS WITH YOUR THICK SKULL

Put the seeds in some sort of sealable bag and whack the shit out of them with the pots

The essence of grinding is putting something between two harder thing + movement . So improvise from there.
Toast them and use anyway. They taste pretty great depending on what you're making.
Here's what you do OP. Get a baking sheet. Chew them up a mouthful at a time then spit them onto the baking sheet. Set your oven as low as it will go and bake the chewed-up seeds for 4-6 hours until dry. They will become a crust so break it into small pieces and then find a way to grind them up.

Give them to someone who isn't an ill-prepared child and buy some that's already ground.
Just use them, once they're cooked into something they're just like sesame seed texture.

is this a joke?

I just use whole seeds, never bought cumin powder. You can't feel them in the finished cooked dish

If you put them on a chopping board, you ca sort o grind them (but not to a powder) with the bottom of a heavy pan. It's more like bruising them, but it will allow any liquid in what you cook to enter and give a lot more flavour. They will become softer and not stick between your teeth,.
