Maitreya [1]

Hey I was just wondering what people's opinions on the maitreya is. I've read some on alice bailey about the masters of wisdom and Benjamin creme and just would like to know if anyone has any sources to disprove or prove some of the claims they make. Also Benjamin creme said the maitreya has made appearances on tv but I tried and couldn't find the interview. Does anyone have any information on this or where I could find the interview.
