Question: At what point does the state of Lishma begin?

Answer: Lishma (not for oneself) is a state where a person receives such reinforcement from above that he can already aim for a connection with the Creator and only this is his goal.

Question: In which quality can we bring contentment to the Creator more through our efforts: in Lishma (for the sake of others) or in Lo Lishma (for oneself)?

Answer: In both states. We should strive to be as kind, good, and bestowing as possible in the eyes of the Creator. Then we will see how precisely our desires are fulfilled.
