But what about Matreiya? BTW, I have no idea who/what he’s supposed to be. Something new age?

Maitreya (Sanskrit), Metteyya (Pali), Maithree (Sinhala), Jampa (Tibetan) or Di-Lặc (Vietnamese), is regarded as a future Buddha of this world in Buddhist eschatology. In some Buddhist literature, such as the Amitabha Sutra and the Lotus Sutra, he is referred to as Ajita.

Matreiya is New Age. He’s supposed to be a great teacher or great master or something.
