First, "universe" does not mean "one song". It's from Latin, uni versum, "turned into one thing".
Second, sound is vibration in a medium, usually air. It doesn't go through vacuum. So once the Big Bang expanded enough to be tenuous, that's it for sound propagation. There is no sound in space.
Third, there are no "vibrational levels", that's theosophy, not science.
Fourth, there's no "vibrational or harmonic level" of water. Harmonic means something that's a multiple of a fundamental frequency. But theosophy has snagged it and tried to attach "harmony" to it, and that's a misuse. Water does have qm vibrations, but these are IR and microwave frequencies, not sound.
And no, you can't vibrate H2O into something like wine, which has hundreds of organic molecules in it, and probably more inorganic. Sound certainly won't do it.
The term "density" refers to the amount of something per volume, or per area in some cases. It is not co-identical with "alternate reality", which is a New Age misuse.
But our universe is not a vacuum... too much matter. We are also talking about God... imagine a pure voice but at a trillion decibels...

Alchemy has more than one meaning. It's the same general process all around, but its intentions cover a broad spectrum of applications. Everything from material transmutation to spiritual transmutation.

Is it a volumetric or areal density? What's the specific gravity?

I should add to the discussion that some posters are taking what looks like a KJV quote from John 1:1 and interpreting it literally.
Logos means a lot of things, and there are hundreds of interpretations of John 1:1, ranging from jellybean to heretical. I'd say a majority of people I run into that actually read the thing for meaning interpret "logos" in this verse to mean Jesus, and not a verbal utterance.
Certainly not one that you can hear through a vacuum.
eta: for example, it's as grammatical to translate the koine to "From the first, the concept was with the God, and was of the God, and the concept itself was a God"

It is difficult to measure something not exisiting (manifesting) in the physical realm, by means of physical instramentations. It goes against the primary diffinitions of the scientific theory. Something (in fact upwards of 95% of "things") can exist but not be manifested physically in order to be measured by current observative scientific technology.
This is where a fully physically thinking scientist will not be able to grasp what is true.
HEB 11:3
"By faith we know the world was created by the relevatory thoughts of God (word/logos/thoughts) so that, that which is seen (exists; manifested in the physical realm) came from (is sustained by) that which is unseen (does not exist in the physical realm)."
Dark matter, Anti-matter, subspace multiverses ect. are all theoritcal physicists' attempt to explain the "unseen" (up to 95% of the energy needed to sustain observed physics) observations of science without the simple explination of the existance of God.
Only faith can bring the true understanding of a universal theory, because both a physical (existant in the physical realm, can be tested, measured) and a spiritual (non-existant in physical realm, cannot be tested or measured by physical intratments) realm exist and make up what is "real" in life during these ages we are living through when combined.
God Bless,

Then how do you know it has a density at all, much less a different one (than from what, I'm not clear). And how do you know it vibrates? Maybe it doesn't. And what's vibrating?
If you can't measure it, and you can't objectively observe it, then you're talking about something that doesn't exist, right? How do you ascribe physical terms to it? You can't know. It might not exist at all, since you can't perceive it in any way.It would be more straightforward to say it isn't there at all.

It requires faith.

I will have to look into that, thanks
By speaking the word "Let there be light", speaking implies voice, voice implies sound... so, from an esoteric standpoint God created order out of chaos by the sound of his voice, his voice generated the sacred vibration that spun matter into existence. Could the "Taos Hum" be the echoes of God's voice? Is the "Big Bang Hum" the echo of God's voice at the moment of creation?

Did you ever look at eckankar? They think the sound of God is "Hu". They spend a lot of time sitting around going "hu" trying to get there. We used to have a small conclave of eckists at Ga Tech.

I have, actually. One of the first things I noticed was the mention of the Sufi, so this could be seen as a modern Sufi following. The Sufi, as I understand, is sort of like a Gnostic Muslim; an Islamic Alchemist. Definitely a lot more territory to cover.
