The "absolute time" is a hypothetical time that either runs at the same rate for all the observers in the universe or the rate of time of each observer can be scaled to the "absolute time" by multiplying the rate by a constant. The theory of relativity doesn't allow the existence of such time because of non existence of absolute simultaneity.
