Ideally, that is what I would do, but I was hoping someone on here might already know it or recognize this thing.

It also reminds me a lot of this drawing.

I think it's a Lung-Ta Prayer Flag (pic related for comparison).

Here's what that means: "In essence, a Lung-ta prayer flag is a rectangular or circular piece of cloth (ideally silk, but cotton or synthetic cloth may also be used), with block-print of a horse in the centre, four symbolic animal figures in four corners and selections from the 400 hymns from the compositions about three Bodhisattvas - Padmasambhava (Guru Rinpoche), Avalokiteshvara and Manjushri. These figures are worshipped in Tibetan Buddhism as divinities. Ta signifies a swift horse, symbolising the spreading of prayers in all pervading spaces when wind comes in contact with them. The symbolic animals in four corners represent Garuda or Eagle (upper left corner), which signifies wisdom and defeat of diseases and malevalent forces, Dragon (upper right), who symbolises overcoming of ignorance and acquiring gentle power, snow lion (lower left) symbolising fearless joy and tiger (lower right) symbolising confidence arising from the path of Dharma that Buddha taught. Very often, on top the three Buddhist deities- Avalokiteshvara (compassion), Majushri (wisdom) and Vajrapani (power) are also represented. At the bottom, joining of rival forces and thus producing universal friendship is represented by combining the features of snow lion and Garuda together, fish and otter together and sea-alligator and sea-snail together. The horse in the centre carries three jewels of Buddhism - Buddha, Dharma and Sangha" (http://www.southasianarts.org/2011/01/artistic-activity-in-nepal-as-world.html).

Aww, they include a small blessing for you.

Ah, very interesting. That definitely seems to be it, the animals in the corners and the horse in the middle very much match. It just on a sheet of thin paper though, rather than silk. Still, very cool, thanks for the info.

Yes, it's a Lungta, or Windhorse prayer flag. I have a whole string of these in different colors.
