The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is the Tantric exercise, and the Mantra, given by the Guru.
ਇਹੁ ਸੁਖੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਅਨਦਿਨੁ ਚੀਨ੍ਹ੍ਹਾ ॥੪॥੧੧॥੬੨॥

Nanak knows this peace alone, night and day. ||4||11||62||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Name of the One is the only spiritual exercise and the only mantra, given by the Guru.
This is the one peace Nanak knows, night and day.
The Name, given by the Guru, is itself the tantra and the mantra.
The close names the Name itself as the tantra and mantra: "the Name of the Lord is the Tantric exercise, and the Mantra, given by the Guru." The Name, given by the Guru, is the practice — the one through which Nanak knows this peace, night and day.
