Need vichar on this pankiti!

Gurbani here means Guru Jee's bani or it also means Gurmantar ?

ਨਾਨਕ ਸੇ ਪੂਰੇ ਵਡਭਾਗੀ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਸੇਵਾ ਲਾਏ ॥
नानक से पूरे वडभागी सतिगुर सेवा लाए ॥
Nānak se pūre vadbẖāgī saṯgur sevā lā▫e.

O Nanak, those whom the True Guru enjoins to His service, have perfect good fortune.


ਜੋ ਇਛਹਿ ਸੋਈ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਏ ॥੪॥੨॥੧੨॥
जो इछहि सोई फलु पावहि गुरबाणी सुखु पाए ॥४॥२॥१२॥
Jo icẖẖėh so▫ī fal pāvahi gurbāṇī sukẖ pā▫e. ||4||2||12||

They obtain the fruits of their desires, and find peace in the Word of the Guru's Bani. ||4||2||12||

It seems like it means Gurbani here.

ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ here seems the Gurbani(Guru's Bani) rather than the reference to the Gurmantar (NAAM). I dont think Naam has been referred by ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ as such, it has been mentioned as "RAAM NAAM,SHABAD,....." in the Gurbani.

As far as I can remember Bhai Sahib has the word gurbani for the chou(4) akhar gurmantar bani.

Gurbani means Baani of Guru. So technically, Naam Gurmantr is also Gurbani because it has come out of mouth of Satguru but at the same time, Naam Gurmantr is also separate from Gurbani as a whole.

Please produce the quote where Bhai Sahib says that Gurbani means Chau-Akhra Naam.

Cant remember in which book Bhai Sahib wrote that.
Below is a shabad where the word 'baani' has been used for Naam.

ਅਵਗਤਿ ਬਾਣਿ ਛੋਡਿ ਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਮੰਡਲਿ ਤਉ ਪਾਛੈ ਪਛੁਤਾਣਾ ॥੪॥
You have forsaken the Bani, the Word of the Immortal Lord, in this mortal world; in the end, you shall regret and repent. ||4||

I think ਅਵਗਤਿ ਬਾਣਿ means here ਪਰਮਾਤਮਾ ਦਾ ਭਜਨ in general, that possible includes both NAAM and GURBANI. The pankti above however has the word ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ which would fit more to mean GUR+BANI.
