Commentary for Berakhot 86:20
ואל יהלך בקומה זקופה דאמר מר המהלך בקומה זקופה אפילו ארבע אמות כאילו דוחק רגלי שכינה דכתיב (ישעיהו ו, ג) מלא כל הארץ כבודו:
He should not walk with an erect carriage. For the teacher has said: He who walks with an erect carriage, even a distance of four cubits, is as though he pushed against the feet of the Shekinah; for it is written, The whole earth is full of His glory" (Is. vi. 3).
Abraham Cohen Footnotes to the English Translation of Masechet Berakhot
I.e. acted in a haughty manner towards God.
