Physicists have theories about the substance of the universe and describe it as wave-like. The fabric of the universe, so to speak, is woven together with threads of vibration, vibrational threads. Some have even described it as a kind of symphony, the whole universe, because it's woven together by sound, and matter is extremely fluid. It can bend, it can stretch, it can morph into something else, much like music. One can introduce variations to it, and there are modulations. So matter is like that also.

In the Bhāgavatam, Kṛṣṇa describes, or Kapiladev describes, how the universe comes from sound as the first element. And from sound, the various other elements emerge and the various patterns in matter are created by various kinds of sounds, coming back to the point that Prabhupāda makes. Acts of creation in this world are dependent on the kinds of sound vibration that we make, or to be more specific, what we say and what we listen to. And as I've mentioned in previous discussions, quoting from the Vedānta-sūtra, the last verse, Anāvṛttiḥ śabdāt, which means everything comes from sound. There are different interpretations of that sūtra, but other ones say that you can become enlightened by sound, or uncovered, Anāvṛtti, by sound, śabdāt. So Prabhupāda mentions how all paraphernalia is available to us. If you want to organize it in a certain way, then you go figure out what kinds of things to listen to and what kinds of things to say.
