Definition of Light - An accuracy never known!

The world as we see it:


The world as we see it is not actually in the present time. We are sensing, seeing, watching, hearing, tasting and even feeling in the past. Time plays a major role in contributing towards the dynamics of the universe and plays as a vital academy in ensuring if the laws of physics are still intact. How simple is the word light? We know what light is, we can see it, we can feel it, and even we can be creative with it but when it comes to defining process of the 'word' light, our minds just begin to wander to learn about the meaningful definition of Light.

Light rays coming from SunOn scientific terms, light has a dual nature. Sometimes it behaves like a wave and sometimes it acts as if it is a particle. But is this a true definition? We are here defining a very important property of Light but accurate definition is still undefined. 

Most common definition according to Dictionary.com

Light is the natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible.
Well this is the definition which we learnt in our primary school but it doesn't define what actually a light is. Well the most appropriate definition which we have given up till now, according to Physics.info
Light is a transverse electromagnetic wave that can be seen by humans. 
Many questions will now popup in our heads like; 'From where does this light came from?' and honestly speaking, we still have no clue over this issue. This is where Infinity steps in. 

Infinity - A number beyond imagination:


As  seen from the first paragraph of The Law of Physics, Chapter 1: Spacetime, it defines Infinity clearly in the following words:
Infinity Symbol
It appears, then, that the assumption of nothing implies an infinite, four-dimensional expanse of space and time (not yet spacetime, which is significantly different)— still nothing, to be sure, but at least a somewhat more interesting version of it. To take another step toward existence, it is necessary to examine this curious notion of infinity that is inextricably bound to the assumption of nothing.
This amazing paragraph, clearly let us to think back to a period when nothing existed, not even time. What could have happened which let time to exist? What was there before the time existed? Was there any other universe before which collapsed and gave our universe a reason to exist? Or was there absolute nothing, which is a mere myth now in physics.

We all know that there was something which was a cause for the birth of our universe. If that cause was infinity, then i'm sure our generation and maybe our future will not be able to define and see that Infinity on Scientific terms.

Infinity according to Religions:


Religions like Islam, Christianity, Judaism, etc define that infinity as God, which is perhaps the most genuine definition to believe in rather than believing in a definition which is unclear and not possible on Scientific terms.

Conclusion: 


Conclusively, the definition of light cannot be defined with its actual definition but will always be defined on the terms of its properties. Maybe not in the lifetime of this Universe.
