Ākāse yanti iddhiyā — those with powers travel through space: iddhi are the psychic powers that Buddhist tradition attributes to advanced practitioners. Traveling through space (ākāsa) is transcending ordinary limitations of perception.

Nīyanti dhīrā lokamhā — the wise are led out of the world: dhīra are the firm, the constant, the wise. The world (loka) here is the world of attachment and ignorance. Being “led out” is liberation.
