Why does pride break the tawhid?

Because pride is the root of all evil thought, word, emotion and deed; it is the essence of separateness, and thus of duality. When pride is fulfilled, it says to its enslaved listener, 'You are better, more powerful, more beautiful, more intelligent, more worthy, more humble (etc. - the list is endless), and reinforces separateness; separateness from your neighbour becomes separateness from God, separateness from God sets up an idol in His place. When pride is denied (when one sees that another is better, richer, more beautiful - etc. -) one's very identity, self-respect, is threatened; pride becomes fear, fear becomes hatred, hatred begets separateness, separateness reverences division, and another new idol is created.
