The pods are seed pods. You will want to let it completely ripen on the shrub, it will dry and begin to dehisce (begin to open) at which point seeds would be ready to harvest. Lilac seeds will sprout best after "moist cold stratification" which helps them initiate spring germination. This is botanical speak for "simulated winter." Seeds can be placed in a ziplock bag with a 50:50 mix of coir and vermiculite that is moist but not wet then stored in the fridge for 1-3 months before sowing. Lilac is definitely not a species I would consider an easy candidate for beginning foray into seed propagation, but a lot has been written about it. Perhaps check out Michael Dirr's really comprehensive guide to shrub propagation if your interest level is strong:
