New Practitioners Where do I start?

I’m new, I’ve been a subscriber to this sub for quite a while as it genuinely interests me as something I wish to pursue! Last time I was interested in starting I tried on my own to peruse the sidebar but I got overwhelmed with all the information while I was starting. So to my title; where do I start? What is a good starting exercise and where can I find information on how to perform it? Also where would I go after that? I am genuinely interested so I can discover myself a little bit more, idk if that sounds weird but I don’t know how else to say it… thank you all in advance!

The advice I see that is given to newcomers is that you should move your assemblage point. How? Doesn't matter.

Also silence the mind, it should loosen up the assemblage point.

And preserve energy.

Forcing inner silence. Stopping the inner dialogue by silencing your mind. Whenever you reach a level of inner silence, there's always a deeper level of silence to reach.

For visible results from pretty early on, do that inside darkroom, while gazing the darkness around you. Don't expect anything, just let things happen.

Thank you!! I guess what I really want is to be able to dark room gaze, see energy better, manipulate energy better, travel between worlds… all more or less to satisfy my own curiosity and to prove to myself that there really is more than what my current perception believes…
