It is an addition to the eight direction we know but exactly what is it? Has it got any reference by way of Sanskrit slokas.

There is nothing called direction in Hindu mythology. I think you are meaning Avatar.Avatars are the incornations taken by Lord Vishnu on different times to save the world from the evil. Eighth avatar is Krishna Avatar. Bhagavad Gita is related to this avatar. The contents of the Bhagavad Gita is a conversation between Krishna and Arjuna taking place on the battlefield of Kurukshetra just prior to the start of a climactic war. Responding to Arjuna's confusion and moral dilemma, Krishna explains to Arjuna his duties and elaborates on number of different Yogic and Vedantic philosophies, with examples and analogies. This has led to the Gita often being described as a concise guide to Hindu philosophy. During the discourse, Krishna reveals his identity as the Supreme Being Himself (Bhagavan), blessing Arjuna with an awe-inspiring glimpse of His divine absolute form. Bhagavad Geeta is an ancient Sanskrit text comprising of 700 verses of the Mahabharata.
The nineth avtar is Buddha Avatar and it is dealing with Siddhartha Gauthama.
