- Go to making a difference with retreats, Vipassana, etc
A difference can be made though not necessarily due to the retreat, Vipassana, etc. Individual needs determine willingness or the ability to change. Many go to retreats for socialization opportunities due to loneliness or feelings of inadequacy. Within such a group the feeling that others are in the same position can help some.
True can comes with the realization of the need to change and acceptance that the change is necessary for self and others!!

Straightforward
Well I used to make retreats, but for myself to try and make me a better person, it helped to have an escape to silence though.
