All bonsai are grown from normal trees. Owever, mango is not very suitable because the leaves are way too big, and do not reduce well.

Hi there,
This is a rather wide question to answer tersely. In any case, the basics shall be learned firstly. This link should help to get you started:
To dig even further within this link, the next step would be reviewing each basic technique individually. Also, you should arm yourself with lots of patience. Do note that this is an art that should not be haste.

A few decades. Sometimes faster. Sometimes it takes longer.

About as long as it takes to create an artwork.
