A force is applied to an object (solid, liquid or gaseous). Depending on how the force is applied, that force is propagated through the object as a P-wave (pressure) or S-wave (sinusoidal).
The force is the initial spark. The wave only exists because there's a medium.
Why do we get a wave? Because it takes time to propagate the force through all the successive layers of material... Imagine now if you have a wave propagating at a relativistic speed...
So it seems you want to place the concept of wave beyond the material world which generates the wave itself. Yes, I agree.
Ditto for the concept of mind.
