Devanagari: कान्त भाव ISO15919: kāṁta bhāva

Considering God as your husband and loving Him accordingly.

A wife has some rights and expectations from her husband. Similarly, a devotee harbouring this sentiment sometimes expects love in return from God. Consequently, there is a tinge of self-happiness in this sentiment that makes it not completely selfless.
